Jó estét nyár, jó estét szerelem
Jó estét nyár, jó estét szerelem is one of the most unique and successful pieces of Hungarian musical theatre literature. Since its premiere, it has become a true classic, which is no wonder: it is a thought-provoking, critical vision of social hypocrisy and human gullibility, and at the same time an entertaining, witty, twisty musical rich in hits.

Let's put our hands on our hearts: many of us have played with the idea of what it would be like to show ourselves to someone else. If we could project an image that is different and preferably preferable to everyday reality. Eternal youth, a fat wallet, an enviable, glamorous life - it's easy as pie to put them on display in today's flashy, garish and outward-looking world of social media. In the old days, it took more than a click or two; at the very least, a good line, a winning performance, knowledge, instinctive elegance and, of course, a certain amount of cunning mixed with a certain amount of depravity. The protagonist of Good Evening Summer, Good Evening Love, a simple young man with a job, pretending to be a wealthy and powerful Greek diplomat, has all of these. And he finds partners to live his double life in a relaxed and risk-free way. Men bow to him, the prettiest women fall into his lap. And the naughty little game is going on just fine - at least for a while...
