What motivated director/choreographer Attila Egerházi and his co-creators was the recognition that the horror of the Holocaust can be expressed with more than words, as the human body and its movements and gestures can also be employed to communicate it. Constructed from subtle elements, this production guides viewers into emotional depths that surpass verbal understanding, into a place where the past and present are intertwined. It is not simply accompanying music that Sándor Födő has composed for the work: instead his score leads us through the labyrinthine piece like an invisible dance partner.

Our offer
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.
A century ago, the world first encountered this remarkable opus, a work that soon became one of the cornerstones of twentieth-century musical innovation. Premiered in 1926, the singspiel is a milestone in Hungarian music history: its composer, Zoltán Kodály, fulfilled his aspiration to elevate Hungarian folk song of ancient origin to the same status as classical music, by virtue of its equivalent values, placing it on the stage of the nation’s Opera House.
