The Lešany Crib

A movement performance, a deep story, and poetry full of images that can heal the world. And if not the world, at least it can give us a gentle stroke...

Inspired by the ballad by the Czech poet František Hrubín

Watch a preview of the performance

The moving story with its beautiful language and the poetry full of images may work as a cure against the world obsessed with production and serve as a reminder of the human dimension in each one of us. The performance impresses by the power of simplicity and humanity emerging from the poetry of Hrubín. Text full of emotions with its rich and intense ancient story, text relating to the pre-Christian and Christian roots of the European culture at the moment of their retrieval and need for their remembering.

Komedie Theatre

The theatre offers audiences performances by contemporary playwrights, works by foreign playwrights, exhibitions and contemporary dance performances

The Komedie Theatre is located in the basement storeys of an office and commercial building constructed between 1928 and 1930 according to the design of architect Josef Karel Říha. The theatre underwent several reconstructions over the years. In the 30s and 40s, the famous Czech actor Vlasta Burian performed there. Throughout history, the theatre has had several owners; the last one is the theatre organisation "Městská divadla pražská", which owns several Prague theatres.
