Our three-part dance piece leads from chaos, through transition, toward a possible order. It does not tell a story but follows an inner ...
Ballet Pécs: Carmen, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 25 September
- 25 Sep 2026 7:00 PM
- classical
Carmen is the symbol of freedom. Her story is the drama of inextinguishable, uninhibited love.
"Carmen\'s story, the characters\' world of extreme emotions and Bizet\'s music is very powerful and inspiring. For me, the main inspiration comes from the sharp shifts between the story and the music. I find the characters\' unpredictability and their explosive tempers, which are the result of ...

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 ...

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.
