Description

A grand old theater located on Nagymezö utca, the so-called "Budapest Broadway," this building has maintained the essence of its previous name, the "Palace of Entertainment." It features operetta, a light-weight style of musical performance that originated in 19th century Budapest and Vienna. Throughout its history, the theater's main consideration has always been to cultivate the traditions of classical operetta and enrich them with modern artistic solutions. Today you can see traditional operetta, as well as highly successful productions of such musicals such as My Fair Lady, Hello, Dolly!, West Side Story, or Fiddler on the Roof.
