A new production of Camille Saint-Saëns' grand-opera SAMSON AND DELILAH will open the series of premières in the new 2025/2026 season at the Slovak National Theatre Opera. This magnificent work returns to the stage of the first scene after almost 100 years in a spectacular concept by young director Zuzana Fischer and with musical direction by renowned conductor Marco Guidarini. The second première will be the legendary opera classic EUGEN ONEGIN by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, which is almost at home on the stage of the Slovak National Theatre Opera. This compelling story of lost love, pride, and loyalty will be presented in a direction by Pavel Smolík and musical staging by the chief conductor Tomáš Brauner. The third opera première will be dedicated to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and his opera THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO (Le nozze di Figaro). This iconic musical comedy, directed by the renowned Jiří Heřman, uses powerful visual imagery to mock gracefully the frivolous intrigues while reflecting on existential questions. Presented in co-production with the National Theatre Brno and Théâtre de Caen.

In the 2025/2026 season, the SND Ballet will expand its already abundant repertoire with two new premières. The autumn première will feature the most famous love story of all time. Shakespeare's drama ROMEO AND JULIET comes to life to the music of one of the most beautiful ballet opuses of the 20th century – Sergei Prokofiev's musical score. The authors of the new choreographic concept are Nina Poláková and Jakob Feyferlik. The passion of the lovers from Verona, set against the backdrop of a drama about rival families, is enhanced by Jordi Roig's magnificent period set design. The spring première at the Slovak National Theatre Ballet will belong to children and all those who have not forgotten how to be children. Based on the well-known fairy tale by James Matthew Barrie, the children's ballet PETER PAN will be performed with the original musical score by Marián Lejava and authentic choreography by Roman Novitzký. The endless imagination that characterised the story is emphasised by the boundless stage design by the designer Lucie Šedivá.
