The Czech Republic’s fourth largest city, Pilsen, is a bustling region renowned for its Pilsner Urquell Brewery. The JK Tyl Theatre (Josef Kajetán Tyl Theatre) is the city’s largest professional theater and an important regional cultural center. To meet the demand of the varied performances that it hosts, it installed the first permanent L-Acoustics Ambiance Acoustic System in Europe. L-Acoustics Czech distributor ProMusic was selected to provide a versatile acoustic toolkit to elevate the sonic experience for the audience.
Its renowned façade—a distinctive city landmark, nicknamed “Swiss cheese” by locals—is crafted from cast cement with 28 irregular bubbles, symbolizing the theater's grand stage curtain. The theater is divided into two primary buildings—the Great Theatre and the New Theatre, which holds up to 460 spectators—purposefully designed to accommodate four main genres of theater craft: operas, dramas, musicals, and ballets.
