The North-Czech Opera and Ballet Theater was founded in Usti nad Labem in 1909, and the building was designed by the architect Alexander Graf. During the First World War, the theater was neglected, but in 1919 the theater resumed its activities.
During the Second World War, the theater building miraculously survived, and soon the theater continued its activities. In 1967, the premises and the facade of the theater were reconstructed according to the design of the architect A. Berger. In the late 80s of the twentieth century, a major overhaul of the interior and exterior was carried out - the walls were decorated with works of art by modern artists, new equipment, video equipment and lighting were installed, and the ventilation and air conditioning systems were replaced.

In 2004, the theater received its official modern name - the North-Czech Opera and Ballet Theater. Today's team consists of several dozen singers from around the world, including from Russia and China. The repertoire of the theater - operetta, ballet, musicals, operas, musical dramatic works.
