Opera of Operas in a classical
marionette version
- The most successful performance since 1991
Mozart composed the opera of operas, Don Giovanni, especially for
Prague, where he personally conducted its first performance in 1787
at the Estates Theatre (Stavovske theatre). At present the Prague
dramatic repertoire offers a version of classical marionette theatre
using period costumes and tall marionettes. This production pays
homage to the Mozart period and atmosphere in the form of an
authentic 18th century performance. Don Giovanni which has had
over 2200 performances since 1991 is presented in the original
Italian version.
