My family and I went to see La traviate during our stay in Prague. The theater is as beutiful inside as it is outside. We sat in the first gallery and I was afraid that the visibility might not be very good, but the stage turned out to be perfecly visible so we enjoyed the opera a lot. I'm not... More

We booked seats in a private box seating just the two of us. The tickets were bought online and was delivered to us at the front entrance on the night of the show as promised. The venue was quite beautiful and the opera performance even better. Recommended.

We seem to have been at the last performance of the current run of Martinu's Miracles of Mary. It was outstanding. Such an all-round great evening at the opera is a rarity, but this was one in a hundred. The theatre itself is a marvel: right size (the parterre has only 13 rows and the acoustics are excellent); the orchestra,... More

I didn't see an event at the National theatre but the best views are from the other side of the river rather than from the side where the theatre is.

Over my three months in Europe, I've toured many opera houses but none as as beautiful as Narodni Divadlo. I saw the opera Carmen and loved it. The music was my favorite part. It is performed in the orignal language but subtitles in English and Czech are displayed on a screen above the stage. Get there early to walk around... More

Miracle of Mary Opera was very good, with incredible harmony and voices! The Theater is one of the most beautiful we have seen in the world!--this is a must see!

We saw an inspired version of the ballet Cinderella. It was a wonderful evening. The interior of the building is worth a visit by itself but adding a performance made it special.

After a stroll through this very interesting, beautiful city, a visit of the opera is cream on the cake! The best presentation of Nabucco I've ever heard and seen!

We booked tickets for Carmen before we went on holiday. We logged on to the theatre's website www.narodni-divadl.cz and selected the venue and date we wanted to go. At first it is a bit confusing since the site for tickets covers several theatres such as the Opera house, however we checked on the map where the places were and that... More

A real gem! I enjoyed the sober decoration inside, the modest size, just perfect for the opera. It brought me back to the Mozart time!
