Příbram’s production of Shakespeare in Love does not need modern effects to win over its audience, according to the commentary.
The performance arrives as theatres increasingly turn to popular titles to attract spectators. Adaptations of well-known films have become a major part of many repertoires.
Prague’s Fidlovačka theatre has followed this approach with stage versions of Hollywood blockbusters and Czech cult films such as Kouř. Příbram Theatre has taken a similar route, offering productions including Limonádový Joe, Kdyby tisíc klarinetů and Ostře sledované vlaky.
