Four forty-something childhood friends — Alíz, Bella, Petra, and Laura — head to a villa in the Balaton Uplands for what’s supposed to be a cozy bachelorette weekend. Naturally, nothing goes to plan. The actress mom who owns the place and Erzsike, the almost-family housekeeper, don’t know the women are coming, and soon the villa fills up with surprise guests, guests of guests, and people nobody expected — plus a few who’ve been awaited for far too long. Champagne and assorted drinks flow, skeletons tumble out of closets, and Laura’s special cake makes a chaotic night even messier. The women, with the indomitable Erzsike in tow, try valiantly — and not very successfully — to untangle the misunderstandings. Then András arrives…
A fresh, fizzy, women-led musical from Liliom Produkció, this time with a man smoothing out the chaos. The cake and the music do the heavy lifting: songs by László Bódi “Cipő” and Republic keep the night bumping along. Expect hits like Flying Whale (Repül a bálna), Fly Away, Little Bird (Szállj el kismadár), and It Must Be Easy for You (Neked könnyű lehet), among other fan favorites.
Cast: Nóra: Ildikó Keresztes; Erzsike: Anna Bede-Fazekas; Petra: Linda Fekete; Alíz: Andrea Bozó; Bella: Piroska Kokas; Laura: Petra Haumann; András: Kornél Pusztaszeri. Directed by: Rita Tallós.
Debuting in November, Bachelorette (Lánybúcsú) leans into friendship, fizz, and fiascos, with a male wildcard who might just sort it all out. Again: cake, Cipő, Republic. Again: those three hits. You’ll be humming them on the way home.

Miklós Vecsei H. & QJÚB — Dialogue in the Dark
2025. October 31, Friday, 7:00 PM
After shows honoring Attila József and János Pilinszky, Miklós Vecsei H. and his Music Hungary Award-winning band QJÚB pay tribute to Sándor Csoóri with a concert-theater piece that searches for passionate, attentive responses to a world drifting into sameness. Csoóri, who would be 95, was a National Artist, two-time Kossuth Prize laureate, Attila József Prize winner, Radnóti and Prima Primissima recipient, Budapest’s honorary citizen, poet, prose writer, and politician. He died in 2016. The evening’s title comes from Dialogue, in the Dark (Párbeszéd, sötétben), published by Magvető in 1973.
Excerpt:
“Then there was no war / and I didn’t have to live under the spell / of a single anxiety and a single revenge — / The Sun floated in the deers’ eyes / and the Earth had a fine name, / a child’s fine name…”
Partners: Nomad Generation (Nomád Nemzedék). Cast: Miklós Vecsei H.; Bori Hegedűs; Ábel Mihalik (Hiperkarma, Kispál és a Borz); Huba Ratkóczi; Jakab Frimmel (Abel Label); Viktor Paczári.
