The story of visionary creativity that changed the way women dress. Coco Chanel as fearlessness, ferocity and risk, as well as taste, philosophy and brand. A contemporary ballet by Mário Radačovský about a woman who fundamentally influenced the world of fashion. The second, spring premiere of the 2023/2024 season, completes the ten-year tenure of artistic director Mário Radačovský at the head of the NdB Ballet company.

Director Stanislav Moša is staging Nezval's text for the second time, having first done so in 1995, when the theatre celebrated its fiftieth anniversary with this production in the newly renovated hall on Lidická Street. At the time, the director and manager wrote about Nezval's text: "There is little Czech theatre literature that can be said to be a poem. Through it speaks a true passion bound by an amazing form enchanted in the beauty of the Czech language." Moša's adaptation of Manon Lescaut, which was subtitled "lyrical drama-confession", broke away from the linear narrative of the well-known story and created a timeless parable. The old abbé de Grieux recalls his fateful relationship with a sinful saint, which gives the originally lyrical story dramatic dimensions and brings to life long-ago secrets, hints and loves in the memories of a man at the end of his life.

The musical was based on the legendary film Some Like It Hot with Marilyn Monroe. It is unbelievable, but the aforementioned film was first shown almost sixty years ago, in 1959. The musical of the same name then achieved extraordinary success worldwide, and in December 2008 it was brought to the stage of the Municipal Theatre in Ljubljana, Slovenia, by director Stanislav Moša. He has now also taken on the direction of the production in our theatre. Two poor musicians accidentally get caught up in a war between mafia gangs. They are being hunted and have no choice but to hide safely. They change into women's clothes and get hired by a band going on tour to Miami Beach. Florida becomes a unique opportunity for the homeless musicians to disappear from the mafia's sight... However, their crazy adventure is far from over! Their disguises lead them into countless comical situations, and to top it all off, both our heroes fall in love with a charming singer and ukulele player named Sugar. As if all this weren't enough, one of our charming musicians, dressed in a woman's dress, is proposed to by an elderly millionaire...

The cult industrial-metal band COMBICHRIST, led by Andy LaPlegua, will bring a whirlwind of aggressive beats and uncompromising riffs with their new album CMBCRST.

The choreography Serenity will bring the calm power of minimalism to the stage, inviting the audience to silence and deeper perception. The theme of the choreography is based on the contrast of movement and stillness. The dancers will move on the border of dynamic movement until the moment of absolute stop. These moments of stillness evoke living sculptures that create space for a meditative experience and a pause in a busy world. With this work, the choreographer, Barbora Rašková, tries to offer the audience a unique opportunity to slow down and let themselves be carried away by the depth of the moment.

Two worldviews, one border between them – one embodies reason and light, the other is elemental, dark and irrational. One night, a charismatic shepherd arrives at the Christian court of King Roger, disrupting the established order of Christian values ​​and worldview. Does his teaching bring joy and goodness or only destruction and chaos? The opera King Roger by Polish composer Karol Szymanowski does not offer a clear answer; he himself described it as a mystery whose theme is man’s self-knowledge, his sexuality and spirituality.

For the second grade of elementary schools, high schools and secondary vocational schools Introduce students to theater genres in a different way! What do opera and ballet have in common and how do they differ? What does the process of creating a production look like from the first idea to the finished performance?

We will find the answer to these and many other questions together at the workshop – How is opera made x How is ballet made? The workshop also includes a short tour of the Janáček Theater.

Sometimes a single second is enough… Black and White is essentially a modern version of the flagship of the classical repertoire – Swan Lake. It is a title that is one of the most performed ballets in the world. Our version, which was a great success in the USA, represents today. It is an attempt to approach this work to the younger generation from a different perspective, by denying all traditions and visually transforming Swan Lake as such. In the classical version of the ballet, the dominant characters are ballerinas (the main double roles of Odette – Odile), so it is mainly a statement of the female element. In our version, we offer a view of Swan Lake through the main character, Prince Siegfried, who is going through a difficult life situation associated with the treatment of a serious illness – cancer. Sometimes a second is enough – and life is turned upside down.

The musical production Golden Lyre will reveal the backstage and present the Bratislava Lyre Festival as a phenomenon of the time, without nostalgia, without idealization, but with perspective, humor and naming the defects of the former regime, which presented this exceptionally watched and popular event as a showcase of the culture of socialist Czechoslovakia. Lyre – golden, silver or bronze… In a single night, it created stars out of performers and hits out of songs. However, one inappropriate verse from the Lyre Stage caused a ban on creation and public performance, and managed to destroy the careers and lives of performers and their families.
