The traveling exhibition Please Enter Our Theatre and its respective exhibition catalogue represent a theatre playbill as a valuable subject of theatriological research as well as an attractive exhibit. The exhibition shows the theatre scene in the Czech lands from the mid-1600s to the mid-1900s, when the playbills have experienced the most wide-spread use, with overlaps to the present, when a theater poster took most of the playbill’s purposes upon itself. The exhibition also includes other objects pertaining to the productions of mostly Czech theatre companies from the vast collections of the National Museum’s Theatre Department, such as photographs, manuscripts, stage and costume designs, props, stage models, paintings, busts, costumes or puppets.
