In co-production with the Spejbl and Hurvínek Theatre.

Daddy, how do you barter a bride? How did you come up with that someone would barter a bride, Hurvínek? Well, it says here: The National Theatre Brno presents Bedřich Smetana’s opera The Bartered Bride. So how is it, Daddy? Well, you know, it’s just pretending… how would I… it’s kind of a ploy to buy a bride for yourself. Now I’m confused – is she sold or bought? You know what, Hurvajz, take Žeryk and Mánička and let’s go to the opera, it’ll be easier than explaining it to you!

 

Would you also like to know what the deal is with selling the bride? Smetana’s The Bartered Bride is one of the iconic opera pieces, but we decided to bring it closer to children this time. And because a comic opera should be really fun, the members of the ensemble of the Janáček Opera of the National Theatre Brno have invited the best possible guides. In the new family show, the famous puppet characters Spejbl, Hurvínek and Mánička will take you through The Bartered Bride and the world of opera. You will also see Žeryk and hear the best musical pieces as well, because the loved puppets will be assisted by opera soloists together with our special Smetana miniorchestra.

Family opera entertainment for children aged 5 to 100.

 

Premiere: 24 November 2023 at the Reduta Theatre

Staged in the Czech original.
