Nosferatu returns to walk among us: the renaissance of vampire stories on screen and stage is no coincidence, as they still encapsulate our deepest fears, desires, and questions about mortality.

A kortárs zene élő legendáját, a százéves Kurtág Györgyöt köszönti az évad művésze, az izlandi zongoraművész, Víkingur Ólafsson, akinek Goldberg-variációk-felvétele 2025-ben elnyerte a Grammy-díjat, és aki szoros munkakapcsolatban áll a magyar komponistával.

Confinement and isolation, freedom and endlessness. FrenÁk’s emotionally charged choreographic structures use dynamic forms of movement to gain visibility and captivate the audience.

Zenés játék Stravinsky The Rake’s Progress című műve nyomán. A darab főhőse, Tom átlagos fiatalember, akit egy pillanat alatt rabul ejt a könnyű gazdagság és hírnév ördögi ígérete. A fausti egyezség során a sátáni Nick mesteri módon manipulálja a fiút, aki otthagyja szerelmét és követi Nicket a teljesítmény és befektetett munka nélkül kínált siker álomvilágába. Az út azonban a kárhozatba vezet. A zene parodisztikus jellege és a rendezés komikus elemekben bővelkedő formanyelve a fiatalok számára is könnyen befogadhatóvá teszi ezt a produkciót, hiszen a darab több olyan problémára tapint rá, ami digitalizált, közösségi média által uralt világunkban különösen a fiatal generációt érinti.

Every year since 2008, this festive gala of Hungarian folk and world music has filled Müpa Budapest to bursting.
