HILT black light theatre Prague

The Czech black light theatre HILT Prague has achieved international acclaim by winning a competition to create a show for the unveiling of the Porsche Taycan electric vehicle in Shanghai, China. This success underscores the global recognition of the Czech school of black light theatre, particularly as the unveiling of Porsche's first electric car, a direct competitor to Tesla, was eagerly awaited by the automotive world.

Sleep becomes a precious commodity, sacrificed to the crucial task of transforming a darkened stage into a canvas of illuminated wonder.
