Ronald Hynd's choreography for the ballet version of Ferenc Lehár's timelessly popular operetta has been one of the most popular pieces for dance stages since it was first presented in 1975. It is a difficult work to classify in terms of genre: constructed from classical elements and full of humorous twists and turns, it can best be described as a “comic ballet”. Surprisingly, considering Lehár's Hungarian origins, it was only in 2014 that Hynd's adaptation made it into the repertoire of the Hungarian National Ballet. After touring Hungarian communities in the neighbouring countries, the whimsical comedy accompanied by the wonderful melodies from the well-known operetta can now be enjoyed at the Opera House.

Our offer
Set in the Roman Empire around 74 BC, Spartacus was László Seregi's first true full-length ballet, which at one stroke became a milestone in Hungarian dance life. Since 1968, one generation after another has enjoyed the historically themed choreography, which treats the story of the ancient slave revolt in such a way that its true message is not the rebellion itself, but rather human emotions and choices under pressure.
There are evenings when our Opera House cannot perform because rehearsals are ongoing on stage until the evening. There are audience members who can only afford to hear their favourite pieces with a discount. And there are works that, although very popular, cannot be staged every season due to the congestion of productions.
