About the inscenation
Zdeněk Jirotka’s iconic humorous novel comes to life in a fresh new adaptation! Acclaimed author and director Tomáš Dianiška brings to the stage a lively, unrestrained adaptation that blends the elegance of the First Republic with the energetic music of Roman Říčař. Saturnin remains just as we love him—the perfect butler who, with gentlemanly audacity, turns the world of his master and his eccentric relatives upside down. Look forward to clever humor, the romantic atmosphere of the 1920s, and plenty of good cheer! There will be spectacular dance numbers, a live band, and more than a few surprises. The first musical production of Saturnin opens in September 2026 at the Hybernia Theater.
