Beckham
On 2 December, Petr Zelenka's comedy Beckham, based on real-life events, will be staged for the first time, taking the spotlight off the main characters in the tabloid media and telling a story that has captivated the entire British tabloid press. It takes us through stars, journalists, TV shows and behind-the-scenes secrets, where the truth is often lost...

Max Clifford is a brilliant media manager who keeps celebrity sensations on the front page for weeks. But the buzz comes at a price - he's barely fifty but he's already over his second heart attack. One day, a relative, a professional footballer, drops in to ask for help because he's been photographed in a gay bar and fears the pictures will be made public. Max goes to a semi-underworld acquaintance to get the pictures back, but he stumbles onto a bigger case: the acquaintance claims there's a girl David Beckham has been cheating on his wife with. Since Beckham is famously loyal to Victoria and the story sounds interesting, Max contacts the alleged mistress...
How does an ordinary girl become a national celebrity? How long can a man's heart stand all those lies? What happens when control gets out of hand?
Petr Zelenka, author of this comedy based on real events, is at home in the entertainment genre. One of his previous hits was produced by our theatre under the title Everyday Madnesses.

Thália Theatre
In the Thália Theatre, the focus is on light-hearted entertainment, in the spirit of the "Pest Broadway" of Nagymező Street. The Thália Winter Garden, inaugurated in 2019, is a little more serious, while the Arizona Studio is home to independent productions. In 2017, the capital reaffirmed its confidence in the management, with Gábor Kálomista applying for the post of managing director and Géza Bereményi as an advisor.
