Studio Marta

The Janáček Academy took over the theatre hall at 5 Bayer Street (Bayerova) in 1952. The hall was reconstructed by students and teachers and it became the Marta Theatre Studio. Another large reconstruction took place in 1990–1991, when the traditional proscenium theatre was changed into a modern theatre hall with a variable theatre space, where the stage sets and the audience can be arranged according to the needs of the authors of the production. Later rehearsal rooms and modern technological facilities were added. Nowadays students in the fields of drama, physical theatre and drama education for the deaf present their graduation productions inthe Marta. The hall is equipped with top quality and flexible lighting, sound and stage technologies, with an average capacity of 100 seats, where students put on up to ten new productions a year. The Studio of Stage Design is located next to the theatre studio and there are also workshops for making costumes and decorations. They are also involved in an ongoing series of street theatre projects.
