It is a difficult work to classify in terms of genre: constructed from classical elements and full of humorous twists and turns, it can best be described as a “comic ballet”.
Surprisingly, considering Lehár's Hungarian origins, it was only in 2014 that Hynd's adaptation made it into the repertoire of the Hungarian National Ballet.
After touring Hungarian communities in the neighbouring countries, the whimsical comedy accompanied by the wonderful melodies from the well-known operetta can now be enjoyed at the Opera House.
Further dates:
6, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 23, 25 February
