  1. Laterna Magika

    A type of nonverbal performance combining dance, music, film and light, Laterna Magika is a much-touted part of the national heritage developed in the late 1950s.

The theatre is an interesting Socialist relic at least.

  2. Smetana Hall

    Acoustics? Who cares about slightly imperfect acoustics when a concert hall looks this good? Decorated with stunning ceiling murals, the 1200-seat Smetana Hall creates sufficient atmosphere on its own. House musicians the Prague Symphony Orchestra kick off the Prague Spring music festival here annually. Day-to-day performers are often less experienced.
