Listen to the most beautiful songs from the famous movie The Bodyguard performed by elite Czech singers and actors!

Musical is in Czech language with no subtitles

The long-awaited novelty of the theater season 2022 / 2023 is now being presented! The musical, in which librettist Alexander Dinelaris and screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan gave more prominence to the female lead Rachel Marron than in the film, premiered at the Adelphi Theater in London's West End on December 5, 2012. To date, apart from the West End, it has been seen by audiences in almost all over the world, including in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Monaco, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Spain, the United States of America, Canada, China, South Korea, Japan, etc. and, last but not least, in Slovakia in the recent Bratislava premiere.

After a little more than ten years, viewers will be able to see Bodyguard in the Czech premiere in the spring of 2023. Of course, they can look forward to both the romantic love story between a singing star of the first magnitude and the former secret service agent Frank Farmer, her bodyguard, and the songs, which made famous not only the film, but especially its performer Whitney Houston. In addition to songs from the film soundtrack such as "I Will Always Love You" (a cover version of Dolly Parton's original song), "I Have Nothing" or "I'm Every Woman", we can look forward to other songs that have been added to the stage musical. For example, "One Moment In Time", "I Wanna Dance With Somebody", "Saving All My Love For You" and many others.

The Karlin Music Theatre is one of the oldest and most beautiful theatres in Prague

The Neo-Baroque building, completed in 1881, was originally furnished with tables and initially served for circus and, later on, vaudeville performances and cabaret shows. In the 1920s, the building hosted performances given by various theatre companies and operetta performances.

Throughout its history, the Karlín Theatre employed some of the most distinguished Czech artists. During the time of the Nazi occupation, the building was the venue for performances of then closed National Theatre, under the name Provisional Theatre.

After the World War II, in 1945, the director E. F. Burian launched in Karlín the regular operation of the repertoire musical theatre. In 1950, the theatre came under the administration of the City of Prague, and in 1954 became the property of the state and was given a new name: the State Theatre in Karlín. In 1961, it was returned to the City of Prague as the Karlin Music Theatre, and has remained so until the present day.
