Murder on the Yacht: ‘The Cat’s Meow’ Comes to Prague

The Mad and Merry Men theatre company will open the new season with The Cat’s Meow, a dark comedy set in 1920s Hollywood. The play is inspired by the mysterious death of film producer Thomas Ince, whose fate on a yacht owned by publishing tycoon William Randolph Hearst became one of Hollywood’s greatest scandals. Written by Steven Peros and later adapted into a film, the story brings together real-life figures such as Charlie Chaplin, Marion Davies, and Hearst himself on a weekend cruise filled with jazz, jealousy, and intrigue. The Prague production will be staged at Loď Tajemství, the floating theatre on the Vltava river. Director Raynar Rogers leads an international cast including Scott Sophos as Hearst, Begüm Burian as actress Margaret Livingston, and Oliver Fecko as Thomas Ince. Producer Gordon L. Schmitz highlights the unusual setting: “Audiences will actually step onto Hearst’s yacht, greeted by a live jazz pianist. They can even join in the 1920s atmosphere by dressing up for the occasion.”     Visualizza questo post su Instagram   Un post condiviso da The Mad And Merry Men (@themadandmerrymen) The Cat’s Meow runs for three nights only – 28, 29 and 30 August at 19:30.

57 Years Since Warsaw Pact Troops Invaded Czechoslovakia

On August 21, 1968, Soviet troops and their Warsaw Pact allies invaded Czechoslovakia to bring an end to that country’s brief period of political liberalization, called the Prague Spring. People still recall waking up on that fateful morning to find that Soviet-led Warsaw Pact tanks had rolled into the country, crushing all hope of implementing the democratic reforms of the Prague Spring. Shocked citizens took to the streets in protest of the invasion. About 500,000 troops were involved in the invasion and occupation, during which 137 Czechoslovaks died and some 500 were wounded. One of the key battles was for the control of Czech Radio, similar to the one that took place at the end of the Second World War. The invasion ended the political and economic reforms led by Alexander Dubcek and reasserted dominant Soviet and Communist authority in Czechoslovakia. It also helped establish the Brezhnev Doctrine, which Moscow said allowed the U.S.S.R. to intervene in any country where a communist government was under threat. Within the following year, resistance faded, Dubček was removed from office, his reforms were undone, and a more Soviet-controlled government was installed.

Meet Lucy: 3.18-Million-Year-Old Human Fossil Arrives in Prague

For the first time ever, one of the world’s most famous fossils arrived in Europe. Prague’s National Museum will showcase two of the world’s most famous human ancestor fossils. Lucy, a 3.2-million-year-old Australopithecus afarensis skeleton, and Selam, the remains of a child of the same species, arrived in the Czech capital on Friday. The fossils, on loan from the Ethiopian National Museum, will be on display from August 25 for two months. Lucy, an Australopithecus afarensis, was named after Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds by The Beatles, a song played repeatedly at the archaeologists’ campsite when her remains were discovered in 1974 near the village of Hadar in the Afar Triangle. Both fossils are regarded as Ethiopia’s most valuable cultural treasures. Their arrival was made possible through an agreement between the Czech and Ethiopian governments, with the Czech state providing guarantees for the loan. The transport of the fossils was treated with the utmost care. They were flown in aboard Ethiopian Airlines accompanied by Lukeš, Ethiopian Cultural Heritage Authority director Abebawa Ajalu Gella, curators from both countries, and members of the Czech police Rapid Response Unit, which also escorted the fossils to the museum on Wenceslas Square. Lucy and...

September 6: Prague Hosts Indian Festival of Music, Food, and Community

Prague will host its annual celebration of Indian culture, Ganeshotsav, on Saturday, September 6, at Kulturní dům Ládví. Ganeshotsav, the festival honoring Lord Ganesha, is more than a celebration of Indian culture—it’s a way to bring people together. Since 2021, the festival has grown into a space where Indian and Czech communities can meet, connect, and enjoy shared traditions. The event is organised by Maharashtra Mandal, Czech Republic, a registered non-profit dedicated to promoting friendship and understanding between Indian and Czech residents. The festival features traditional Indian rituals, music, dance, and food, and welcomes everyone to join in the fun. This year, the festival also adds a charitable aspect: part of the registration fees will go to support non-profits in India (Matrubhoomi) and the Czech Republic (Karmabhoomi). “With this initiative, we want to contribute to the development of communities both in our country of origin and in the country that is now our home,” says the organizers to Prague Morning. By partnering with like-minded organisations, the festival encourages intercultural dialogue, mutual respect, and connections between diverse communities living in the Czech Republic. Like last year, organizers will support small entrepreneurs from the Indian community who will present the diversity of...

Galerie Rudolfinum Presents Iván Argote’s Largest Solo Exhibition

Galerie Rudolfinum is presenting Radical Tenderness, the largest institutional solo exhibition to date by Colombian-born, Paris-based artist Iván Argote. Running until September 7, 2025, the exhibition is free and comes after a landmark year for Argote, marked by his participation in the Venice Biennale and the installation of Dinosaur—a five-metre-high pigeon sculpture—on New York’s High Line. Curated by Leonardo Bigazzi, the show spans over 15 years of Argote’s career, with works in painting, photography, sculpture, installation, performance, and film. It combines new site-specific commissions with key works from earlier series, encouraging visitors to reconsider how public spaces and monuments shape memory and identity. “Radical Tenderness is an open conversation about how we can imagine a different public space,” says Argote. “It’s about unlearning inherited systems of power and dreaming of spaces built on openness, care, and solidarity.” Known for playful, provocative interventions, Argote challenges the authority of monuments and redefines art institutions as places for activism. His works often question who decides which histories are celebrated and which are forgotten, and how art can foster collective healing. Exhibition highlights include an indoor sculpture garden of plants and weeds as a proposal for an ideal public park; botanical paintings directly on...

Czechia to Compete for Oscars with Documentary for the First Time

For the first time in its history, the Czech Republic will compete for the Best International Feature Film Oscar with a documentary. The Czech Film and Television Academy (ČFTA) has chosen I’m Not Everything I Want to Be, directed by Klára Tasovská, as the country’s official submission for the 2026 Academy Awards. The film is a portrait of the life and career of Czech photographer Libuše Jarcovjáková, who was noted for her photography of the underground LGBTQ scene in Prague prior to the decriminalization of homosexuality in the country. Its world premiere took place earlier this year at the Berlin International Film Festival, followed by screenings at major festivals in Vienna, New York, Turin and Copenhagen’s CPH:DOX. It also enjoyed a successful run in Czech cinemas. The film also won the audience award and the Pass Culture jury prize in Écrans mixtes, LGBTQ+ festival of Lyon in 2025. This year’s selection process was different from previous ones. The ČFTA presidium introduced a two-round vote: in the first round, a committee shortlisted three to four titles from all submissions. In the second round, the entire academy voted on the final choice. According to ČFTA, both the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and...

From Game to Screen – Resident Evil Reboot Starts Shooting in Prague

Filming is starting in Prague on a new reboot of Resident Evil, the popular video game series turned film franchise. Shooting will take place in city streets and at Barrandov Studios, with the film set for release in September 2026. This version will move away from the action style of recent films and return to the tense, dark mood of the original games. Director Zach Cregger, known for Barbarian and The Vanishing Hour, told CinemaCon earlier this year that his take will be “different from all previous films” and will capture the feeling players know well — standing at the edge of a dark corridor with a single bullet left, knowing something dangerous is ahead. The film will not retell existing game plots but will keep the series’ rules and world. It will follow one main character whose story gradually descends “deeper into hell,” aiming for a more personal survival horror rather than large-scale action. Casting has not been fully confirmed. According to Deadline, the lead role will go to Austin Abrams, who recently worked with Cregger on The Vanishing Hour. World of Reel reports that recent Oscar winner Mikey Madison (Anora) has been offered the female lead. Last week,...

1968 Invasion of Czechoslovakia Remembered at NeverMore Festival

On the 57th anniversary of the 1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia by Warsaw Pact troops, Prague’s Výstaviště will once again host NeverMore 68, a day-long festival dedicated to freedom, truth, and historical memory. The event, held on August 21, invites the public to explore how governments, foreign media, and institutions on both sides of the Iron Curtain responded to one of the darkest moments in Czechoslovak history. This year’s edition places a strong focus on the United Kingdom, where a large Czechoslovak exile community lived at the time. Visitors can expect an exhibition of declassified British government documents, diplomatic cables, and media coverage from 1968, offering a new perspective on how the West viewed the Soviet-led invasion. “Each year, in light of current global events, NeverMore 68 feels even more relevant. It reminds us how fragile democracy can be, and how vital it is to defend freedom and human dignity,” says Tomáš Hübl, head of Výstaviště Praha. “I’m particularly looking forward to the insights from the British Embassy and British Council, and to seeing Jiří Mádl’s Waves again — it never loses its emotional impact.” British institutions are taking a leading role in this year’s programming, including a panel discussion on...
