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 ...

Ballet: Swan Lake, Opera House Budapest, 14 May
- 14 May 2026 6:00 PM
- classical
Tchaikovsky’s first ballet is the most beloved classical piece in ballet literature: while the hardships of love between a prince forced into marriage and a maiden enchanted into the form of a swan is one of the most charming Russian romantic fairy tales, the piece nevertheless failed at its original premiere in 1877.
The choreographers creating the premiere were simply not equal to ...
“Dedication”: a Man, a Piano, & a Good Story, Brody House Budapest, 12 – 14 May
- 12 May 2026 7:00 PM
- contemporary
Roger Peltzman, an accomplished pianist from the U.S., is touring his one-man show to Budapest on May 12, 13, and 14. For one hour, he tickles the ivories (from blues to Chopin) cracks jokes, and chats about his family history during WWII (warning: it’s dark, but he turns it into peace and joy). His deeply human story is dedicated to the remembrance of his uncle who was a young budding pianist at ...
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 ...
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 ...
Contemporary Circus: Vollmond, Festival Theatre Budapest, 11 April

- contemporary
Pina Bausch was one of the most influential dancers and choreographers of the 20th century, the creator of epoch-making productions of dance theatre, and it is perhaps no exaggeration to say that her magnus opus was the Tanztheater Wuppertal itself, which from the early 1970s on she transformed into an extremely important centre of modern dance.
Although she passed away more than fifteen ...
Ballet Company of Győr & State Folk Ensemble, National Concert Hall, 8 April

Over the past few years, the compelling multi-arts productions of the Pure Source series have looked at the music Béla Bartók collected in Turkey, the connections between folk and baroque music, and Bartók’s influence on jazz.
These were artistic demonstrations of how Bartók’s collection of folk music has been critical for the work that subsequent generations have carried out for the ...
