Our colleagues at Opera Plus report that all 62 members of the National Theater chorus have been quarantined as of yesterday on the advice of medical specialists.

The opening production of Smetana’s opera LibuĊĦe has been canceled.

Prague has recorded a steep rise in Covid cases in the past few days.

    Many continental countries are experiencing steep rises as people return from their August holidays. Hungary, for instance, has sealed its borders and mandated a national 2-week quarantine in an attempt to limit the rise.
