Galileo: one of the most successful Czech musicals with a stellar cast!

In Czech only (with no subtitles)

An exciting story full of twists and turns, in which the audience will find everything - love, passion, intrigue, hatred, as well as the romantic struggle of an individual against society. In addition, the musical amazes with its unconventional scenography and period costumes.

It is already clear from this that the musical Galileo will not be in the slightest a dry biography of a famous scientist, known from textbooks, but a narrative spectacle full of unexpected plot twists, accessible and comprehensible to the widest public. There is probably no adult to whom the name Galileo Galilei does not mean something, at least his statement "albeit it does move". He stated the law of inertia even before Newton, in the field of mechanics he is credited with the correct description of free fall, the classical principle of relativity and movement on an inclined plane.

Galileo Galilei was a Tuscan astronomer, philosopher and physicist closely associated with the scientific revolution. He was at the birth of discoveries and inventions such as the telescope, the thermometer, improvements to the microscope, the geometric and military compass, and even the ballpoint pen. His conflict with the Roman Catholic Church is taken as the most significant example of the initial conflict between religion and free thought, especially science in Western society.

In Hybernia theatre you can see the best of the famous ballet and opera performed by leading Czech artists

Hybernia Theatre and its location have a rich history. In the 14th century, the emperor Charles IV built the St. Ambrosius monastery here which gradually fell under different orders, the Benedictines, Minorites, and finally in the 17th century the Irish Franciscans.

In late-18th century the monastery was shut down on the order of Emperor Joseph II and the church was deconsecrated. Still, the place was called „U Hybernů“ (Hybernia means Ireland in latin). The former church served as a customs house, exhibition hall. In 2006 its interior was transformed into a modern theatre hosting mainly musicals, but also ballet, opera performances and jazz concerts.
