INSPIRACE THEATRE

Club meetings with jazz, opera and pantomime. Small studio & stage of HAMU situated in the basement of Liechtenstein palace.

Inspirace Theatre is a scenic studio of HAMU, established in the basement of Liechtenstein at Malostranské náměstí in Prague mainly for the presentation of music and theatre production of HAMU students. Theatre opened on 13. 9. 2009 with a premiere of couple of one-act plays "About Landerbork" and "Lady's Servant". In 2014-15 the theatre underwent a thorough reconstruction and reopened again on 15. 10. 2015.

Inspirace Theatre has a small stage without the orchestra pit and is sufficiently equipped with light and sound machinery. The space is more suited for smaller plays and intimate performances as its capacity is only 45 seats. Maximum possible capacity of the space achievable by bringing additional chairs is about 55 viewers.

Regular shows include sessions by Pantomime Department (on Wednesdays), concerts organized and provided by students of HAMU Jazz Interpretation Department (on Thursdays), or an intimate opera performances by the Voice and Opera Directing Department.

Theatre is occasionally renting its premises to outside productions of the legendary small-forms theatres. It hosts one of the stages for the annual Fringe festival and the Okolostola company's musical-dramatic productions (every Tuesday)

Program

This is a closed space comprising small and large rehearsal rooms, a foyer with Wi-Fi for students, the TON office, the Opera Studio and its archive, a small storeroom and a kitchen.

It was created by converting the former HAMU canteen.

Thus, after many long years the right conditions and facilities were in place for the Opera Studio, tuition of opera, jazz and non-verbal theatre students, and Studio TON to work.

The premises are also used by other university departments or rented out, depending on free capacity.

The studio is accessible directly from Malostranské náměstí, making it suitable for renting out as well.

The large rehearsal studio is a favourite place for musical conferences with approximately 50 participants, workshops, concerts and singing competitions.

The room is variable and is equipped with two high-quality Bohemia grand pianos and other musical instruments.
