Les Misérables - A nyomorultak
It is the imprint of a bygone era, which still holds up a mirror to us today: our heroes are victims, seekers of redemption, erring men incapable of forgiveness, lovers, conspirators and connivers. But in each of them there is hope for the uplifting of spirit and soul.

musical in two parts
A worthy musical stage adaptation of Victor Hugo's powerful, poignant novel of a century and a half ago, Boublil and Schoenberg's world-famous composition, which now also has a distinguished history and is a huge success worldwide, is a musical adaptation of Victor Hugo's poignant novel of a century and a half ago.
In the four decades since its premiere in London, the musical has been performed in 53 countries around the world, translated into 22 languages and won Laurence Olivier, Tony and Grammy awards.
Schoenberg's exuberant music, which touches the deepest registers of the human soul, gives a new quality to the passion, desire for freedom, pain and human love that emerge in the novel. "He brings to life the emblematic figures of the troubled and troubled France of the 19th century, the broken lives of those who were robbed of their dreams.
It is a reminder of a bygone era, but it is still a mirror of the present: our heroes are victims, seekers of redemption, erring men unable to forgive, lovers, conspirators and connivers. But in each of them there is hope for the uplifting of spirit and soul. The power of their words is given by Tibor Miklós' translation of exceptional beauty.

Madách Theater
There is still an “era” in the Madách Theater. The era of the rise and success of musical theater. The change began in 1983 with Cats, whose decades-long series of success provided a solid foundation for the next defining step: the legendary 2003 performance of The Phantom of the Opera. Both performances were directed by Tamás Szirtes, who was elected director of the Madách Theater in 2004. Under his direction, the Madách Theater embarked on a path that has resulted in a successful musical theater of outstanding quality. World-famous musicals line up in his program, which are usually in large blocks, so-called they are staged according to the en suite playing order, and each performance remains on the show for years. The basic aim of the theater is to give the viewer the same experience even after 10 years as at the premiere.
