The coming winter season reveals a new facet of Český Krumlov: one filled with calm and poetry. The time of advent is filled with beautiful encounters, such as collective lighting of the Christmas tree, singing the Christmas carols, St. Nicholas present giving and including the Postal Office of Baby Jesus. Live Nativity Play – a biblical story depicted in song and dance, accompanied by live music, presents a magical culmination of this pre-Christmas period. Advent weekends with Old Bohemian Christmas market where one can taste punch and sweet-smelling Christmas pastries will put everyone into a festive mood. We suggest that everyone but especially families with young children can kick off their Christmas Eve with Bear Christmas on the 1st Castle courtyard. Český Krumlov also has a poetic and uniquely magical atmosphere for welcoming the New Year.

15.12.2019   (Su) 15:00

1 December (Sun), 15.00, Municipal Theatre Český Krumlov
Drak Hradec Králové Theatre – A STAR ROSE ABOVE BETHLEHEM
The play by Pavel Vašíček is an assembly of excerpts from a book by Josef Volák by the same name, songs by Adam Michna of Otradovice, folk Christmas songs and fragments of nativity plays from Bohemian baroque period.
Advent time is now represented by overflowing shops and hectic preparations as well as media coverage criticizing this commercial nature of Christmas and the lost original meaning. Drak Theatre is traditionally presenting biblical-themed plays in this time to counter-balance all that. Rather than scolding, the plays invite to share an aesthetically pleasing experience rooted in the Christian roots of our civilization and its humanistic message. The play A Star Rose Over Bethlehem is following similarly-themed previous plays Christmas Day Came and Hey, Master! It covers New Testament stories about the birth of Jesus (Annunciation, Birth, Shepherds, The Three Kings, Murder of the Innocents, Escape to Egypt, Return to Galilee) that form the spiritual context of this festive period.
Performing: Pavla Lustyková, Johana Vaňousová, Milan Hajn, Dominik Linka, Jan Popela, Václav Poul and Jiří Vyšohlíd
Performance duration: 50 minutes with no break
Entry: 70 CZK

8 December (Sun), 15.00, Municipal Theatre Český Krumlov
ŠOS Prachatice Theatrical Company – ALL THE POWER OR THEN IT HAPPENED!
Three stories explaining why you should clean your ears, comb your hair and brush your teeth. And, what can happen when we neglect to do so! Children do not want to hear about little details such as uncombed hair, dirty ears, stuffy nose, unbrushed teeth, messy toys, bad table manners, undone shoelaces and telling on others. But suddenly, something incredible happens! And this means that little scoundrels must quickly learn their manners if they want to be nice and merry kids again!
Based on a book of Ester Stará. Screenplay, musical arrangements and direction: Jaromír Hruška.
This re-newed staging is based on fairy-tale novel of Ester Stará “AND THEN IT HAPPENED!”. The theatrical arrangement presents parts of the novel on stage in a manner that hopefully does justice to this entertaining, brief, charming but also educational novel.
Performance duration: 55 minutes with no break
Entry: 70 CZK

15 December (Sun), 15.00, Municipal Theatre Český Krumlov
SEMTAMFÓR Praha – FAIRY-TALES OUT OF A BASKET (Terribly Sad Princess, Little Monster Emílek, Kate and the Devil)
Take a trip inside three well-known Czech fairy-tales and help us to heal a sad princess, defeat the merciless Lady of the Forests, walk through hell and experience other adventures. Theatre Semtamfór continues its successful series with another piece by director and script editor at Czech TV Luděk Horký.
Performance duration: 55 minutes
Entry: 70 CZK

Where: Municipal Theatre, Český Krumlov

History and Tradition


ADVENT

Advent used to be the expectation time prior to the arrival of our Saviour to this world. The word "Advent" comes from the Latin "adventus", meaning arrival. The advent time was actually a preparation time for Christmas holiday and since 11th century this time has been set to the last 4 weeks before the Christmas Eve. It was a time of fasting, a time of spiritual reflection rather than of excessive eating and drinking. All entertainment, dancing and singing were banned. Some folk ceremonies, more or less transgressing this ban, took place nevertheless during the Advent period. Moreover, the liturgical year started on the first Advent Sunday since the Christians based their year count from the birth of Christ. The dark purple colour was a characteristic fasting colour right until the third Advent Sunday, being thereafter replaced by pink, a colour signifying joy. Each of the four Advent Sundays had a folk nickname - iron, bronze, silver and golden. Advent as we know it commences on the fourth Sunday before Christmas Eve and lasts between 22 and 28 days, falling on any appropriate Sunday between 27 November and 3 December. Several significant Saints days are celebrated during the Advent period, such as St. Andrew, St. Barbara, St. Nicholas or St. Lucia.

CHRISTMAS

In the Christian tradition, Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ and belongs to the most significant Christian feasts. Christmas Eve is not yet part of Christian Christmas. This day marks an end to Advent and also to the fasting period. The Christmas Eve dinner is therefore festive, although made of fasting dishes. The ensuing Midnight Mass is in fact a relict of a night mass which originally preceded all important Christian feasts. The Christmas feast begins by the Day of Our Lord's Birth on the 25 December. St. Stephen's Day is celebrated on 26 December. The Epiphany (also known as the Three Kings) is celebrated on 6 January. On this day, so the tradition goes, the wise men of the East have come to pay their respects to the Baby Jesus in Bethlehem, bringing him gifts. Later, the wise men were turned by the lore into kings and their number was set to three.

ST. NICHOLAS

The Bishop Nicholas was born on 5 December around the year 250 A.D. in the town of Patara to a religious and wealthy Christian family. Upon his parents' death, he has distributed the majority of his wealth to the poor and needy. In order to escape displays of their gratitude, he escaped on a pilgrimage to Palestine. St. Nicholas is the patron Saint of sailors, fishermen, protector of ferrymen and especially of children.

NEW YEAR'S EVE

The last day of December commemorates the Pope Silvestr I. This much-celebrated feast was originally not bound to any particular traditions. The New Year's Eve Night has gained importance during the 16th century when the Gregorian calendar became established in most Western Christian lands, placing the beginning of the new year on 1 January.
