According to the plans the sixty-five minutes long performance, after the Schiller-performance with lighting soul, after Don Carlos, with the same actors they would perform it for the adventurous viewers. I have watched the performances separated, which have been made according to the classical works, which rhymed on one another, but I still remember, that after Don Carlos, even if with fragmented soul, but I can leave as the main part of the viewers do it, that “It is worth it!”. First of all it can be thanked for Schiller then secondly for the troupe. In case of Egmont, after the disorientation and surprise of the beginning moments, we, the viewers soon get into the circulation of another kind of swirl, after watching the exceptional satyr play, which has been performed by the talented over-pouring and overturning of Goethe’s play, only one question remains in us: “Is it worth it?”

We can also think about that presented Goethe as the only writer on the poster, with which percent can cover the reality, however the importance of the romantic story of a hero can remain, then those tiny things, which can make it contemporary, over colour the text a lot. But above all, the contemporary media additives, first of all Gabriella Varga and Gábor Jászberényi’s sensational musical trick of commercial radio can get the show. Marquis de Posa of the previous performance is Egmont here (Ákos Orosz), The Duke of Alva is The Duke of Alva (László Keszég), Zoltán Lendváczky becomes William of Orange from Carlos. The two performers of the couple of mother and daughter are brilliant, they are Gyöngyi Blasek and Erika Tankó.

It is just a short news, but I can tell, that if there has been a performance in my life, after which I felt, immediately after its end, that “Now I would like to get it once more, again, but exactly the same way!”, then it has been that kind. It is fabulous, this event is full of rhythm, it has healing power, it is a vitriolic performance. I can say: it is just for those, who can think. But it is not that way. Who has not woken up from his dreams so far, can even get stuck here on the Mikszáth Square. It is a theatre that can wake you up, which contains the soft musical performance of the season in it. Zoltán Balázs has proved many times those actors near him get enlightened. Maybe, it is even better, that musical producers do not usually go to theatres, so the viewers of Maladype do not have to be afraid of the fact that they may lose Gabriella Varga.
