Following her graduation from gymnasium, Zedníčková attended the Theatre Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague (DAMU). She has since performed at the Realistic Theatre, the Činoherní Club, and with the Háta theatre company. Her fluency in multiple languages has likewise led to roles in German productions.
