Vendulka and Lukáš are united in love. Smetana’s rural opera The Kiss portrays their pride, stubbornness, quarrels and misunderstandings that separate them for a brief time. It depicts both comic and touching scenes from village life, and concludes with a reconciliation and confirmation of the couple’s love by a kiss.

V rámci projektu Operní líheň Smetanovy Litomyšle se Hubička promění v podmanivý zážitek, v němž dostanou prostor talentovaní pěvci na prahu svých operních kariér. Pod vedením Jakuba Kleckera a Magdaleny Švecové se na scéně spojí mladí umělci, Smíšený pěvecký sbor KOS Litomyšl, orchestr Czech Virtuosi a členové Janáčkova akademického orchestru.
