David Košťák, Petr Hašek

The birth of a hero in the open air!

Premiere 13. 7. 2025

Hercules was never like the others. He had powers that other mortals only dream of. But he didn’t know where he had got them from, and his mother, Alcmene, would have preferred if he didn’t brag about them. Yet fate is fate. And when one is predestined to become a hero, neither a whole host of mythical monsters nor the smug gods of ancient Greece can prevent it.

According to ancient laws, their half-brother inherits the property and they (and their mother and their underage sister) must move to a simple village house. Their future is extremely uncertain – who will want to marry the girls without a dowry? Moreover, when both stubbornly long to marry for love?

But gentlemen have already appeared on the scene – the shy and witty Edward, the brave Colonel Brandon, the charming Willoughby and the rich Lord Quido... The magical colour of Jane Austen’s novels comes to life in the castle gardens of Český Krumlov, taking us back two centuries, to the times when stories of great romantic love still existed …
