3 Best Performing Arts in Letna, Holešovice, and Troja, Prague

Most of the programming for this small, out-of-the-way theater is physical, nonverbal theater and dance, along with some music. It's a great place to see cutting-edge, unconventional productions; each year has a different theme. It's also home to Motus, a not-for-profit organization, set up by young local artists, producers, and presenters to promote and produce interesting and inventive new art.

This experimental theater is based in a market hall, complete with a cavernous bar and bistro bisected by a huge, twisting plywood sculpture. It's worth checking out Jatka78's program online to see what new and often thrilling Czech or European performances are on, from comedy to cabaret to circus.

A creative hub that in some ways defies description, combining theater, dance, teaching, artists' studios, and a "living room" café. Alta is an artistic, exciting place to spend a few hours or take in some cutting-edge contemporary dance.
