After captivating audiences across the globe for more than three decades, Slava’s Snowshow is coming to Prague.

The internationally acclaimed theatrical production will run for seven performances at the Divadlo Hybernia from March 4 to 8, 2026. Tickets available here.

Created in 1993 by Russian artist Slava Polunin, Snowshow has toured dozens of countries and hundreds of cities, drawing millions of spectators.

Over the years, it has built a reputation as a show that speaks to audiences of all ages and backgrounds, combining visual poetry, clowning, and large-scale stage effects in a way that feels both intimate and spectacular.

Snowshow is often described as a genre of its own. Though it has been performed thousands of times, the production retains a sense of spontaneity that makes each evening feel unique. From the opening moments, the audience is drawn into a dreamlike world where logic gives way to imagination.

Adults are invited to rediscover a sense of childlike wonder, while children find themselves immersed in a universe that feels tailor-made for their curiosity.

Giant balloons float above the crowd. Nearly 100,000 soap bubbles fill the theatre. Paper snow drifts across the auditorium, turning the space into a temporary winter landscape. By the finale, spectators are no longer passive observers but active participants.

The central figure — a fragile, comic character in a yellow costume and red slippers — moves between humour and quiet melancholy. Some viewers experience the show as a playful return to childhood. Others see in it a subtle reflection on loneliness and longing. Snowshow leaves room for interpretation, which may explain why it continues to resonate decades after its premiere.

International recognition

Over the years, Snowshow has received more than 20 international awards. Among them are the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Entertainment, the Drama Desk Award, and a nomination for the Tony Award.

Prague dates and tickets

The Prague run will take place at Divadlo Hybernia, located at Náměstí Republiky. Performances are scheduled for March 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, 2026.

Given the production’s history of sold-out shows worldwide, early booking is recommended. Tickets are currently on sale through official ticketing platforms.
