Roman Prorok

A recording of the final performance of the famous production of G. Feydeau's comedy, directed by Jiří Menzel, which was successfully performed by the Vinohrady Theater for twenty years. The fame of Feydeau's A Flea in Her Ear was established at the Vinohrady Theatre in the 1960s by director Václav Hudeček with his production starring Vlastimil Brodský in the dual lead role. The studio version is now considered a television classic. In the second half of the 1990s, the theater's dramaturgy returned to this comedy bestseller and entrusted the direction to film and theater director Jiří Menzel. Another strong generation of actors was given the opportunity. The successful premiere took place on November 15, 1996, and the production ran for twenty long years. The recording is from April 6, 2016, when the performance was staged for the 363rd and last time. The director and all those who had appeared in the comedy over the long period were in attendance.

In this TV film, the genius of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is resented by Antonio Salieri.

Studio Ypsilon's musical comedy connects the circumstances surrounding the creation of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's last opera with the story of The Magic Flute itself. The actors' performances intertwine with the arias of the world-famous composer, creating a collage interwoven with humor and perspective. The story of Tamino and Pamina's love is not omitted, with the opera's authors placing many obstacles in their path, as well as the struggle between good and evil to maintain balance in the world. So how did it happen back then, and who inspired Mozart to write?
