Budapest’s Vörös Neon is reviving the hit comedy Isteni végjáték (An Act of God) in 2026, with Róbert Alföldi as God, delivering razor-sharp encounters with the Almighty. Venue: 1072 Budapest, Dob Street (Dob utca) 1. Dates: 2026.02.09., 2026.02.22., 2026.03.22., 2026.03.29. Organizers reserve the right to change dates and programs.
One Night With the Almighty
God drops in because He has a lot to say. He riffs on the last few tens of thousands of years, answers nagging questions, and unveils the next stages of His project, with divine timing and human-sized punchlines. Expect lively revelations, fresh commandments, and a creator who’s not above updating the user manual.
From Broadway to Vörös Neon
The comedy triumphed on Broadway in 2015, starring Jim Parsons. Kultúrbrigád ran the Hungarian version from 2020 to 2025 across Budapest and several regional cities, and even scored a success in London. Now it’s back, rebooted for Vörös Neon—sharper, cheekier, and ready for a new congregation.

Pros
+
Family-friendly-ish if your crew enjoys smart, irreverent humor—teens and adults will get the most out of it
+
The show’s topic is well-known internationally thanks to its Broadway roots (Jim Parsons starred in 2015), so the premise lands even for first-timers
+
Budapest is a popular, well-known destination for U.S. tourists, and the 7th District (Dob utca) is right in the lively, central Jewish Quarter
+
Minimal Hungarian needed if there’s an English-language performance or surtitles; even without, the Broadway origin makes it easier to follow for some
+
Super easy to reach: trams, buses, and Metro lines crisscross the area; rideshares and taxis are plentiful, and street parking/garages exist if you rent a car
+
Compared to similar irreverent, God-on-stage comedies abroad, this one has local bite and a cult-following vibe in an intimate venue
+
Limited run dates give it that special “catch-it-while-you-can” feel that travelers like
- If it’s only in Hungarian and no surtitles that night, non-speakers will miss a lot of wordplay
Cons
–
Humor is cheeky and blasphemous in parts—might not suit very young kids or conservative families
–
Vörös Neon is a smaller venue, so tickets can sell out fast and sightlines can vary
–
Driving in the center can be stressful and parking tight at showtime compared to using public transport
