The Moravian-Silesian National Theatre is a professional theatre company based in Ostrava, Czech Republic. Founded in 1919, it is the largest performing arts organisation in the region. The company creates and presents productions through four separate artistic departments: opera, drama, ballet, and musical theatre.
