The Theatre Critics’ Awards are bestowed on the basis of simple sums of votes submitted in the Svět a divadlo magazine’s survey (69 voters participated this year). The Best Production of the Year is The Vultures, a production of Henry Becque’s play directed at the Dejvické Theatre by Jan Frič, who also worked with Marta Ljubková to substantially adapt this more than a hundred-year-old text. Both awards for the best performances of the year were won by actors from the Divadlo Na zábradlí of Prague, and it was also declared the Theatre of 2025. The Best Actress of 2025 is Magdaléna Sidonová who was chosen by voters for her leading role in the production of Mrs. Dalloway, an adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s novel directed by Anna Klimešová. Miloslav König was awarded the Best Actor of 2025 for his leading role in the production My Struggle: A Man in Love, an adaptation of Karl Ove Knausgård’s eponymous novel, directed by Jan Mikulášek. The Best Czech Play Staged for the First Time is Tomáš Ráliš’s Slučitelné díly (Compatible Parts), staged under direction of the author with dramaturgy by Martin Satoranský at the Klicpera Theatre of Hradec Králové. The award for the Best Set Design of the Year went to the creative collective of Marta Hermannová, Domink Migač and Jan Pichler for the puppet production Soudružky s kroužky (Loops and Hoops). The Music of the Year went to the composer Petr Hora for “the musical-theatre composition” Předřeč šelmy (In the Eye of the Wild) with a libretto by Jiří Adámek Austerlitz, who also presented the work in collaboration with the BERG Orchestra at the Alfred ve dvoře Theatre of Prague. The Talent of 2025, according to critics’ votes, is the actress Klára Ondrůšková who has attracted attention particularly in her role of Eva in Gabriela Preissová’s Gazdina roba (The Landlord’s Woman), staged at the Slovácké divadlo Uherské Hradiště.
