Mozart's Così Fan Tutte, Eiffel Art Studios Budapest, 7 June
- 7 Jun 2026 5:29 PM
- classical
Così fan tutte is a bewildering piece. With endlessly beautiful music and a comedic guise, Mozart paints the most exquisite yet most embarrassing moments of human emotions and relationships.
Have I really fallen in love with my sister’s fiancé? Have I truly stolen my friend’s bride? How is this possible? Is it even possible? Will they forgive me? Can I forgive them? And what happens next? ...
Budapest Dance Theatre: Wonderful World, National Dance Theatre, 3 June
- 3 Jun 2026 7:00 PM
- contemporary
The curtain rises, soft jazz music plays in the dim, smoke-filled light. The sound of a solo trumpet instantly captivates everyone in the bar. It is night-time. We can barely discern the figures in the dim light, and yet they tell us that even though they are physically present, their thoughts and spirits have already wandered far away under the spell of the music.
The various characters ...
The Abduction from the Seraglio, Eiffel Arts Studios Budapest, 29 May
- 29 May 2026 7:00 PM
- classical
A gripping plot – in this case the story of young lovers fighting to escape the seraglio – is in and of itself one of the keys to a successful dramatic work. However, the varied music written by a twenty-something Mozart, with its freshness and a few oriental touches, makes the singspiel The Abduction from the Seraglio completely irresistible.
The production, the first opera staging by Miklós ...
The Cup of My Blood, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 27 May
- 27 May 2026 7:30 PM
- contemporary
Christianity and its fundamental purpose are based on the resurrection of Christ. However, no one has ever given a voice to the sole eyewitness of this epoch-making event: Mary Magdalene.
There lies the body of the Messiah before her, and in her monologue she shares her thoughts and inner turmoil with us. Mary Magdalene conjures up another possible reality, bringing to life another plausible ...
Don Giovanni, Opera House Budapest, 12 May
- 12 May 2026 6:00 PM
- classical
There are works of art that are timeless, that you cannot get tired of, that cannot be performed too many times.
Don Giovanni by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is no exception – it is no coincidence that it is known as the “opera of operas”. And some productions, even if they were staged several decades ago, are still relevant and worth revisiting.
One such production is Don Giovanni, directed ...
Compagnie Hervé Koubi: What the Day Owes to the Night, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 10 May
- 10 May 2026 7:00 PM
- contemporary
When I was young, before I discovered the Art of Dance and became fully devoted to it, I was fascinated by drawing. Today I keep this same preoccupation in what I call, in my work, my taste for the construction of the gesture and its setting in space.
Where I leave, where I am going, what will be my path … I probably kept this unspeakable taste to leave the trace of the artistic gesture ...
Prima Donnas + 2 Heroes, Eiffel Art Studios Budapest, 9 May
- 9 May 2026 7:00 PM
- classical
In 1991, the calm waters of Budapest’s opera scene were suddenly stirred by a young girl, not even twenty, from Kiskunhalas. During an audition, she dazzled with the famous aria of the Queen of the Night, and director Endre Ütő immediately signed the girl who hadn’t yet graduated from the Academy of Music.
Erika Miklósa made her debut as Papagena, with a background in sports, a radiant ...
Ballet Company of Győr: Peer Gynt, Festival Theatre Budapest, 7 May
- 7 May 2026 7:00 PM
- classical
Pursuing happiness, love and affection through countless adventures across this great wide world, but still eventually finding a final peace in the arms of his beloved, Peer Gynt is one of the most complex characters in 19th-century drama.
The challenges of staging and absorbing the play are always exceptional tests of strength for the director and the audience.
This is particular true ...
Ludwig van Beethoven: Fidelio, Opera House Budapest, 18 April
- 18 Apr 2026 6:03 PM
- classical
Amidst the many stories of strong and heroic men, a work where true strength and resolution are embodied by a woman – even if she must disguise herself as a man to achieve her goal – always raises fascinating questions.
Ludwig van Beethoven’s only opera brings together multiple traditions: it incorporates the Singspiel (a musical drama with spoken dialogue), an almost fairy-tale-like happy ...
