Branické divadlo

The Branické divadlo features a classical six-axial facade with fluted pilasters and a central portico adorned with theatrical masks and a triangular pediment.

Local amateur actors commissioned architect Vašek Šindelář to build the theatre between 1924 and 1925, with the first performance taking place on August 1, 1925.

The theatre operated as a platform for non-verbal performances and pantomime artists during the 1980s, allowing artists to bypass Communist censorship through movement-based expressions.

The theatre hall contains nineteen rows in the parterre section and two rows on the balcony, supported by two massive Tuscan columns made of green artificial marble.

The facade displays a high relief sculpture by Rudolf Březa depicting a central woman with long braids holding a laurel twig, accompanied by kneeling figures.
