This Wednesday marks exactly 65 years since the first production of Prague’s legendary Semafor Theatre, established by the song-writing duo Jiří Suchý and Jiří Šlitr. The musical comedy, called Člověk z půdy or The Man from the Loft, was an immediate success, sparking a new era of Czech theatre.
The premiere of The Man from the Loft took place on October 30, 1959, at Prague’s Divadlo Ve smečkách and went on to have over 220 performances.
