László Dés – Péter Geszti – Krisztián Grecsó: The Paul Street Boys (A Pál utcai fiúk)
The classic arrives as a clash not of children but of young people, tightening the drama with modern-sounding music and lyrics. Acoustic objects, the actors’ rhythmic invention, youthful energy, humor, and the novel’s cathartic message all drive this gripping retelling.

Péter Geszti (Geszti Péter) concert
The frontman of positive energy unloads a summer set packed with stadium-shaking Rapülők dance hits, Jazz+Az funk flair, Gringo Sztár, and Létvágy pop gems—live, amped up, witty, and straight-talking.

Lovers of Ancona (Anconai szerelmesek) – musical comedy
Two decades on, still one of Hungary’s most-played comedies. It fuses Italian fairground farce with homegrown humor and the greatest Italian hits of the 1970s. Sunshine in show form.
2026.08.11.
Lovers of Ancona at Lake Balaton (Anconai szerelmesek a Balatonon) – musical comedy
Twenty years later—but only on the calendar—the whole Italian troupe heads to Hungary in the balmy summer of 1989: thicker waists, silvering hair, teens in tow, and hearts wide open for roots, old-new loves, calm, and joy.
