The Jackal Years
The Jackal Years is set in Prague's Dejvice in the late 1950s, living peacefully in its "small town" way in the shadow of the red star at the top of the International Hotel. One day, a young man named Bejby bursts into the world of parents living with the everyday worries of early socialism and their children, whose sense of the "outside world" is determined by the exotic contents of the hotel's trash cans. The innocent dustman causes a stir with his eccentric clothing and passion for "unknown" rock and roll rhythms; the youth are thrilled and the parents despair. Bejby's appearance, amplified in the story by the rock and roll hits of Ivan Hlas, which have now become popular (such as Jednu mi fotr požiadě, Na kolena or Rock'n'roll pro Beethovena), thus marks a key turning point in the lives of a generation of boys. The popular story of dreaming about a different, better world beyond the limits of a desperately gray reality appears on the stage of the Music Stage in our original production and musical adaptation. It is directed by Stanislav Slovák.
Monty Python´s Spamalot
Who doesn't know the legendary warrior King Arthur? And the mythical castle of Camelot, where the Knights of the Round Table gathered to unite a divided Britain and fight against enemies and finally set out together to find the Holy Grail? We all know this legend. But perhaps the reality was a little different… The comedy group Monty Python was formed in an Indian restaurant in Hampstead, London, in May 1969, when five Britons and one American decided to join forces and create a comedy series for the BBC. Thus was born Monty Python's Flying Circus, a series full of sketches, absurd situations and supremely British humor; it aired for 4 seasons from 1969-1974 and has a total of 45 episodes. In addition to live shows, the "Pythons" then ventured into feature films, among others, the most famous of which are The Meaning of Life (1983), Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979) and Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1974).

The Witches of Eastwick
At the beginning of October 2024, 20 years have passed since the opening of the Musical Stage. The opinions of many naysayers who claimed in 2004 that the Brno City Theatre would own an unused, useless building after a few seasons now seem like just smiling memories. The Brno musical stage has already permanently entered the (not only) Czech theatre map, and the list of premieres listed here is filled with new productions every year, whether they are premieres of original titles or performances of classic musicals. In connection with the celebrations of this anniversary, we have decided to return to a musical that many audiences still remember today. Thanks to almost 150 reruns that have taken place since the premiere in 2007, when people hear the name The Witches of Eastwick, they often think of this production rather than the original book or film, which brought Petr Štěpán the prestigious Thalia Award for his portrayal of the demonic Darryl Van Horn.

Sugar! (Someone likes it hot)
The musical was based on the legendary film Some Like It Hot with Marilyn Monroe. It is unbelievable, but the aforementioned film was first screened 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! Thanks to their disguises, they experience countless comical situations, and to top it all off, both of our heroes fall in love with a magical singer and ukulele player named Sugar.
Manon Lescaut
Director Stanislav Moša has staged Nezval's text for the second time, the first time in 1995, when the theatre celebrated its fiftieth anniversary with this production in the newly renovated hall on Lidická Street. At that 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 des 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 Addams Family
A mysterious, gloomy house in a secluded area outside the city near a cemetery. Here lives the somewhat peculiar Addams family, whose members delight in creepy and morbid humor. Their favorite color is black and they consider death to be the most beautiful thing in life. However, the Addams family's daily, terrifying routine changes drastically when young Wednesday brings her new boyfriend Lucas. Lucas' parents are also scheduled to visit this demonic household, and Wednesday, who is in love and has been replaced, demands that her relatives behave normally. Like normal people - that is, completely different from what they are used to. The members of the strange Addams family first appeared in 1938 in a comic strip by Charles Addams, and their stories were then published in The New Yorker magazine for five decades until the author's death in 1988. Charles Addams drew over 1,300 comic strips during his life.

The Jackal Years
The Jackal Years is set in Prague's Dejvice in the late 1950s, living peacefully in its "small town" way in the shadow of the red star at the top of the International Hotel. One day, a young man named Bejby bursts into the world of parents living with the everyday worries of early socialism and their children, whose sense of the "outside world" is determined by the exotic contents of the hotel's trash cans. The innocent dustman causes a stir with his eccentric clothing and passion for "unknown" rock and roll rhythms; the youth are thrilled and the parents despair. Bejby's appearance, amplified in the story by the rock and roll hits of Ivan Hlas, which have now become popular (such as Jednu mi fotr požiadě, Na kolena or Rock'n'roll pro Beethovena), thus marks a key turning point in the lives of a generation of boys. The popular story of dreaming about a different, better world beyond the limits of a desperately gray reality appears on the stage of the Music Stage in our original production and musical adaptation. It is directed by Stanislav Slovák.

Bejby's appearance, amplified in the story by the rock and roll hits of Ivan Hlas, which have now become popular (such as Jednu mi fotr požiadě, Na kolena or Rock'n'roll pro Beethovena), thus marks a key turning point in the lives of a generation of boys.
The Jackal Years
The Jackal Years is set in Prague's Dejvice in the late 1950s, living peacefully in its "small town" way in the shadow of the red star at the top of the International Hotel. One day, a young man named Bejby bursts into the world of parents living with the everyday worries of early socialism and their children, whose sense of the "outside world" is determined by the exotic contents of the hotel's trash cans. The innocent dustman causes a stir with his eccentric clothes and passion for "unknown" rock and roll rhythms; the youth are thrilled and the parents despair. Bejby's appearance, amplified in the story by the rock and roll hits of Ivan Hlas, which have now become popular (such as Jednu mi fotr požiadě, Na kolena or Rock'n'roll pro Beethovena), thus marks a key turning point in the lives of a generation of boys.
