Explaining his departure, Derzsi told website szinhaz.hu that he cannot work in the present atmosphere at the theatre. Pozsgai said in his reply “we thank him for the substantive information which he outlined to us abut the previous management in meticulous detail and made great use of it in the initial period.”
