The jury included stars such as the first master of the National Theatre Brno Ivan Popov, the first soloist of the National Theatre Prague Adam Zvonař, and the art manager of the BWDG competition and excursion festival Anastasia Adeeva.
In his speech, Adam Zvonař expressed his enthusiasm for many performances, but those who received 10 points are exceptional and deserve to perform on the world-famous stage of the main venue at Disneyland Paris and theaters across Europe.
