Events

This music and dance program, accompanied by film projections, is based on selected biblical themes from the Book of Genesis.

The fascinating story of the world’s gradual creation—from the making of Adam and Eve to the seventh day of rest—offers scope for a fresh, playful, and imaginative approach to the various themes. By depicting their expulsion from the Garden of Eden, the creators also reveal the dark side of humanity on stage. Moral corruption gives way to divine wrath; the parallels to the present day are intentional, prompting SĽUK to consciously pose a series of unsettling questions to the audience.

Creative animations and large-scale projections, along with the captivating performance of the SĽUK dance ensemble, are complemented by witty theatrical vignettes and spoken commentary from actors František Kovár, Petra Molnárová, and René Štúr.

The autumn ballet premiere will serve as the symbolic culmination of an era—marking the final full-length original work by Artistic Director Mário Radačovský during his tenure in Brno.

The upcoming production, titled *The Mask*, represents a striking departure from the grand, sweeping narratives and biographical sagas that have characterized his work to date (such as *Beethoven*, *Coco Chanel*, and *Warhol*). This time, the creator consciously eschews linear storytelling and specific historical facts. The focus shifts away from biographical details to a compelling dialogue between music and the essence of humanity.

The genius of Frédéric Chopin and Franz Liszt provides the key to a deeper message; the production is conceived as a sequence of scenes that harness the emotional power of waltzes, nocturnes, and rhapsodies—not merely for illustration, but to unmask human nature. Through this virtuosic and emotionally charged music, the work tears away the idealized mask of humanism to reveal an unsettling possibility: that our civilization is but a thin veneer, liable to crumble with unexpected speed. Confronting the modern world, the production poses an urgent question: does latent violence lurk beneath the surface of noble values ​​like justice and tolerance, and does the old social contract still hold? The musical dramaturgy—dominated by solo and concert piano works—will form an inseparable whole with the work’s central concept.

Janáček’s body of work, deeply rooted in folk music, also encompasses the piano—arguably the composer’s most intimate instrument.

The first set of the piano cycle *On an Overgrown Path*—a collection of poetic miniatures—was created in stages between 1900, 1908, and 1911. Janáček composed five pieces for the cycle in 1900, at the age of 46. They were originally published as short pieces for harmonium in the *Slavic Melodies* (*Slovanské melodie*) series, issued by the teacher Emil Kolář from Ivančice. The expansion of the cycle was facilitated by editor Jan Branberger, who arranged for the publication of the pieces with the Prague-based publisher Bedřich Kočí in 1908. This publishing interest prompted Janáček to compose additional movements; the cycle eventually grew to ten pieces, to which the composer assigned poetic titles. These small, intimate miniatures, which evoke some of the composer’s personal memories, are today counted among his best-known and most frequently performed works.

Choreographer Edward Clug has concocted a captivating theatrical blend from brilliant, seemingly disparate ingredients: Shakespeare, the music of the rock band Radiohead, and contemporary ballet. The result is a spellbinding production—nominated for a *Divadelní noviny* Award—whose magic appeals to audiences well beyond the younger generation.

Edward Clug is a creator of European renown. His choreographic work is no stranger to Brno audiences; in 2017, his home company, Ballet Maribor, performed *Peer Gynt* at the Janáček Theatre. We have added his piece *Radio and Juliet* to our repertoire; since its 2005 premiere, it has enjoyed great success on tours across more than twenty countries. *Radio and Juliet* offers an unconventional take on the famous Shakespearean tale of the lovers from Verona, set to the music of Radiohead—one of today’s most successful rock bands. You can be certain you have never listened to Radiohead or seen *Romeo and Juliet* quite like this before: it features elegant movement aesthetics, Edward Clug’s distinctive fluidity of motion, and striking visual elements including superb lighting design and video projections. The choreographer unfolds this unconventional interpretation of the Shakespearean love story—featuring one female and six male dancers—around a single premise: What if Juliet decided not to die? She wakes up beside the reclining Romeo and, through flashbacks, relives the events that led her to the tomb.

There are few significant or famous ballets from the Classical and Romantic eras that are not part of our company’s repertoire. We are including *Giselle*—a masterpiece of Romantic ballet and, without exaggeration, a cornerstone of the ballet canon—in our performance schedule.

The premiere of the new ballet *Giselle* took place in Paris in 1841; it was such a resounding success that, within a decade, it had been staged at all the major venues of the ballet world. The subject matter was drawn from the German poet Heinrich Heine’s collection *De l’Allemagne*. The story—concerning young women who die of betrayed love before their weddings and subsequently find no peace in the grave—was adapted by Théophile Gautier, a leading theorist of Romantic theatre, and librettist Jules Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges. Adolphe Adam composed the poignant, enchanting, and melodic score, which is imbued with French charm. The first interpreter of the fragile Giselle was Carlotta Grisi, one of the greatest dancers of the Romantic era; the ballet was created specifically for her by choreographers Jean Coralli and Jules Perrot. In the Czech lands, *Giselle* won over audiences only gradually. It did not reach the Brno stage until the late 1960s, when choreographer Miroslav Kůra presented it there for the first time (1968). Audiences also fondly remember Jiří Blažek’s 1983 production—which enjoyed a run of over a hundred performances—featuring the unforgettable, ethereal ballerinas Soňa Zejdová and, later, Jana Kosíková in the title role.

Charity Ballet Gala

In November, the Janáček Theatre will become the setting for a remarkable meeting of art and solidarity. Now in its fourth year, this ballet gala brings together leading soloists from European stages with a single goal: to help cancer patients.

Michael Flatley is preparing a spectacular *Lord of the Dance* tour for 2026, marking the famous Irish dance troupe's 30 years on stages around the world. This audience-favorite dance show will return to the Czech Republic for the fifteenth time!

Where does solitude end and closeness begin? And how many of the boundaries that limit us have we created ourselves?

Program 9 from the NdB2 junior ballet company presents two new choreographies that turn their focus to the individual—to their inner world and their relationships with others. In *Silence Full of People* (Ticho plné lidí), Klaudie Lakomá explores various forms of solitude—ranging from the feeling of loneliness amidst a crowd and isolation to the moment when solitude can become a space for self-discovery. In *At the End of Every Light There Is a Tunnel* (Na konci každého světla je tunel), Marek Svobodník ventures beyond the boundaries we create in life—boundaries we gradually begin to perceive even where none originally existed.

These two choreographic perspectives are united by the search for one’s own place—somewhere between solitude and closeness, limitation and freedom, the need for self-protection and the courage to reach out to others once more.

During this interactive workshop, children will get a glimpse into the worlds of opera and ballet, learning about basic theatrical concepts and professions in a fun and engaging way.

Participants will take part in a series of connected activities—involving both movement and voice—that allow them to discover firsthand how opera and ballet performances are created. The program also includes a meeting with an opera singer and a ballet dancer.
