Since its foundation, Srnec Theatre - the 1st Black Light Theatre in the world – has belonged among the best known representatives of the Czech dramatic art in the world. The ensemble was established in 1961 ... The principle of the black light theatre, invented by the founder and artistic director Jiří Srnec, is based on … a simple trick, the so-called „black cabinet“, in which the actors dressed in black using props cannot be seen against the black background from the spectators‘ perspective. The props and all the other objects become able to move and they seem to live unique lives of their own… The very first performance of the ensemble took place in 1959 in Vienna.
