The Estates Theatre

The Estates Theater in Prague was built in 1783. Mozart premiered his opera Don Giovanni here in 1787 and he also premiered his Symphony No 38 here in Prague that same year. The statue outside the Estates Theatre is “Il Commendatore” (also known as “The Cloak of Conscience”), created by artist Anna Chromy in 1993. The sculpture represents the ghostly character from Mozart’s opera Don Giovanni. The Estates Theater is a lovely theatre to see and hear any performance.

One of the most beautiful theaters visited and interesting play to watch called One More Minute (it says it’s Drama, but should be added Comedy to genre description). Seats at the balconies are comfy, there are only three chairs which makes it cozy.

What a fantastic experience. They've been putting on Don Giovanni since it premiered (1700s) and I was so excited to take it in. It did not disappoint!

My husband and I have never been so disappointed by an opera performance. This rendition of Die Zauberflöte was completely devoid of emotion — everything from the stage decor to the singers to the orchestra felt mechanical and uninspired. It came across more like a student production than a professional one. To make matters worse, the performance was inexplicably shortened. While Die Zauberflöte typically runs 2 hours and 40 minutes to 3 hours, this version was over in just about an hour. While that might sound like a mercy, it only made the whole experience feel rushed and butchered. If you have a genuine appreciation for opera, I strongly advise you to skip this production. It was, quite frankly, painful to watch.

Went to Don Giovanni which was premièred here a couple of hundred years ago. We were first time opera visitors, so the subtitles were very very helpful. The performance was good and funny, and way cheaper than tickets from where we were from.

I attended the opera during April in 2025. The entire building is well decorated and nice Seat in a box might be unexpected for who suffers from hot body temperatures. The AC is barely cooling during the show. It is impossible to get any snacks during the brake In general a ticket in back seat inside the box is not worse than you think before. Save yourself and buy cheap tickets Enjoy

Spectacular experience watching Leonce and Lena at The Estates Theatre. Magnificent Theatre. I fell in love with the interior. Sat in A16 and it was a very good seat. Very good view. You can also see the orchestra while they’re playing. Leg room can be improved but not bad. I paid approximately £35 for my seat.

Beautiful theatre in the centre of town. Went to see Frankinstein, which was an interesting production with subtitles
