| The Image Theatre in Prague offers a first‑class black light theatre experience. The comfortable, modern auditorium is equipped with the latest audio‑visual technology.
Black light theatre, a typically Czech art form, creates a world of illusion and hidden secrets. Stories are told visually through a blend of colourfully dressed mime artists, visual illusions, energetic dance routines, acrobatics, and dramatic sound and lighting effects.
The performances are emotional, imaginative and often include playful comedic touches that appeal to both adults and children.
Each performance leads audiences from total darkness into vivid bursts of light and colour. Moments of deep shadow give rise to fantasy and mystery: shapes emerge, poetic images appear from nowhere, and invisible actors reveal themselves suddenly and dramatically.
Dance forms a major part of every black light theatre production. Nimble performers use movement to convey emotion, express the unspoken and create the impression of defying gravity as they twist and turn through the air.
Music enhances the visual spectacle, brings inanimate objects to life, shifts the mood from tragedy to comedy and helps transform the incredible into the believable.
In short, prepare your senses for a journey of imagination and discover. Inside yourself there may be things you never knew existed! Please note that strong lighting effects and limited strobe lighting form part of the performances.
The Image Theatre is located just five minutes’ walk from both Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square.
In black light theatre, the story is presented visually with little or no spoken dialogue, making the shows ideal for international audiences of all ages. View theatre performances - listings & tickets. |
