Between Body and Soul
A festival gala celebrating life through art, featuring performances and presentations by festival lecturers.
Yvetta Blanarovičová (born 24 September 1963 in Bojnice, Slovakia) is a Slovak actress and singer who has spent most of her career in Prague. She trained in singing and violin at the conservatory in Žilina, then completed a music-drama programme in Prague. Czech audiences know her best from Zdeněk Troška's fairy-tale films - as the witch Černava in Princess Jasnenka and the Flying Shoemaker and as the little devil in Princess from the Mill - and from musical theatre, where her role as Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady earned her the Thalia Award.
Blanarovičová performed on April 30, 2025 at the Philip and James festival in Zbraslavice.
In September 2024, Blanarovičová appeared in the VIP svět program on television.
Kinobox.cz recalled the 30th anniversary of the fairy tale The Princess from the Mill, in which Blanarovičová played a little devil.
Blanarovičová launched a series of major concerts with the Hradec Králové and Pardubice Philharmonic; the pandemic interrupted the tour after three performed evenings out of ten planned.
