Tick, Tick… BOOM! (Tikk-takk Bumm!) — 2026. March 25, Wednesday, 19:00. Jonathan Larson’s autobiographical musical, first staged Off-Broadway and adapted into an acclaimed 2021 Netflix film, lands with a raw, intimate club-concert vibe. As his 30th birthday looms, composer Jon questions career, timing, and destiny: when will the big break come — if ever?

Actor Márk Ember’s performance invites the audience into a stand-up-like, acoustic evening: a sensitive, talented artist searching and doubting. Three actors slip into multiple roles, mapping Gen Y’s anxieties: no war, no hunger, no penny-pinching past — yet fear of the “real world,” of irreversible adulthood, commitment, and a foggy future weighs heavily. Their task is to survive it, by any means necessary.

The Naked Truth (Meztelen igazság) — 2026. March 29, Sunday, 19:00. A musical comedy about six very different women who sign up for a confidence-boosting pole-dance course — and quickly discover they’re not there just for sexy moves. Friendships spark, secrets surface, and self-acceptance grows. A bold idea pushes them to shed their inhibitions — and their clothes — for charity. Witty and freeing, it’s a story of self-love, female solidarity, and the courage to strip down, emotionally and literally.

A London-based Hungarian, Róbert Szűcs, is fed up with free money — unbelievable but true. He’s got it all: unemployment benefits, old-age pension, sick pay, family allowance, disability stipend, and, naturally, free cow’s milk. Plus the nursing-bra hustle that makes his wife jealous. Fearing exposure, he decides he’d rather ditch the illicit payouts than his wife — or his freedom. Easier said than done. Cast includes: Iza Varga/Zsófia Kondákor, Ferenc Hujber, Imre Harmath/Ádám Gombás, Ádám Gombás/Zoli Kiss, Ganxsta Zolee, Anna Bugár/Zsófia Kondákor, Péter Sándor/Levente Hajdu, István Imre/Dávid Csányi, Orsolya György, Timi Stelczer.

Set in the 1970s in Bácsszentmária, near the Yugoslav border, this musical threads humor and irony through an “optional” summer work camp. Commander Antal Tóth runs the tomato-processing wing of the Soviet–Hungarian Friendship Co-op; his deputy is Russian teacher Aunt Panni (Panni néni). Her daughter Juli, a KISZ secretary, falls for freshly graduated Péter Varga, a would-be sociologist whose father fled in ’56 — a mismatch many disapprove of. Around them: Budapest teens doing what teens do — work, party, fight, make up, fall in love — and above all, sing and dance to evergreen Neoton hits.
Rendezvous in Paris, or Happy Easter! (Randevú Párizsban, avagy Kellemes Húsvéti Ünnepeket!) — 2026. April 23, Thursday, 19:00. A two-part comedy set today in an upscale Paris district.
