In his local pub, Prague landlord Brouček is branded as a philistine and narrow-minded person. He himself is tired of constantly dealing with insolvent tenants and wishes to be far away from the daily annoyances. After drinking a lot of beer one night, his wish is miraculously fulfilled through two fantastic excursions: First, Brouček lands on the moon, which is inhabited by a society of artists who are as bizarre as they are spiritual. Then he suddenly finds himself in medieval Prague, where he gets caught between the fronts of a religious struggle and is supposed to go to war with the Hussites...

In his satirical opera The Excursions of Mr. Brouček, Leoš Janáček succeeded in developing his advanced musical language further and enriching it with ambiguous comedy. In his production of this rarely performed work, Canadian director Robert Carsen also brings the eventful history of the city of Prague back to life; Simon Rattle is the musical director.
