Josef Kajetán Tyl Theatre (Czech: Divadlo Josefa Kajetána Tyla) is a main theatre in Plzeň, Czech Republic. The theatre was built between 1899–1902 in the neo-renaissance style with some art nouveau elements to the design of Antonin Balsanek. Every year the theatre performs some 18 premieres of drama, operas, operettas, ballets or musicals. Since September 2014, actors of the theatre also perform at the New Theatre.[1]

In front of the façade stands a statue of Josef Kajetán Tyl by Alois Soper.

gollark: The main problems are:- as previously mentioned, there are no good programming languages- it would have to interop with all the other osmarks.net subsystems, and some of them are bad

gollark: If I were to go from a static site to a dynamic site, the comment system and theming could be better integrated, along with achievements.

gollark: I have some ideas.

gollark: Oh, what would people think of yet another dubiously valuable osmarks.net restructuring™?

gollark: Oh.
