The people behind it

Himself
Is there life after death? Are we alone in the universe? Where do half a pair of socks go? This evening, we finally get some disturbing answers to the big questions of existence. Comedian Zoltán Kőhalmi, who has already successfully tackled his everyday problems and childhood traumas, now entertains the audience with his real doubts and anxieties. Can a comedian joke about death when he is still alive? Can the audience laugh at him when he is dead? The Benefits of Pessimism is a funny show by a sad clown, where even those who think there's nothing to laugh about can laugh. The show is enjoyable for the optimistic audience, and even for the die-hard optimist, but don't count on it.
Gyuri Orosz and Kristóf Németh's joint stand-up comedy show is a special spot on the Hungarian comedy scene. The show also reveals theatrical behind-the-scenes secrets, which the Bad Guys perform with a mind-blowing density of jokes and a lot of improvisation. Of course, Gyuri Orosz trolls every story by Kristóf Németh, but we've come to expect that from him. We can promise you one thing, belly laughs are guaranteed...
Now we finally have the big idea! "A" Everything works out as I planned, or "B" ...Of course, "B". If I come up with something, it's either fucked up or it turns out to be a load of bollocks. That's me. Paganini of sh@t ideas. The Pope of plans gone up in smoke. It's time to take a look inside myself! Help me out here, let's find out together if I'm stupid or just a poor sparrow. My latest solo show, "Plan Gone Up in Smoke", shows one little man's struggle with the cosmic forces of the universe that suck him in day after day.
Showder Klub presents Lorán Barna dropping the belt. Popularly known only as the Dog, the standing star will be performing an all-night show. And although Trabarna specialises in the sound of internal combustion engines, he can also talk... although we can't guarantee that what he has to say will be entirely devoid of the sound of a Zsiguli.
Humour is a human privilege. There are examples of fun, games and amusement in the animal kingdom, but the generation of deliberately funny things is a peculiarity of homo sapiens. A giraffe doesn't bother to trick a lion or make his mates laugh, but even a meerkat can't laugh at his neighbour falling down. We can. Humour is a gift to humans, it amuses us and often releases tension. Its source is mostly our own stupidity and weakness, whether we look at the individual or at humanity.
Showder Klub presents its all-night standup special series starring Sándor Badár. An improvisational comedian and character actor who, as a member of the comedy mafia in Szentes, is accused of constant joking around in a punchline organisation. His career has always been greatly influenced by his relationship with animals and travel from Bamako to Japan. Nowadays he speaks Badari professionally and does not complain. He resists foreign languages, even though he has already completed an Italian teleshop language school. In view of the international situation, he has not been left untouched by the confinement, like millions of our fellow human beings. But, as a Sentencer, he overcame this extraordinary situation by a clever move from the lowlands. How?
The backbone of my new self is the irresolvable contradiction of the last 33 years, where the more I wanted to achieve something, the less I had a sense of achievement. I was a certified footballer for eight years, then started playing really well after I stopped, I was really getting laid when it was no longer my priority to win a woman, and I was appointed manager of a restaurant in London when I was finally disillusioned with the hospitality industry. My new evening explores this theme and my stories and observations are based on this contrast.
Gyuri Orosz' all-night wanderings through the mazes of health and life. While recounting the series of examinations, surgeries and consultations from the patient's point of view, he himself becomes a bit of a doctor, a healer, as laughter is a proven cure. The show is highly recommended for hypochondriacs!
What is the point of trolling? Can sport be replaced by humour? Was there life before mobile? Would women be better men or would men be better women? What good is a flag when the wind is not blowing? These questions are not answered in Hadházi's new solo show, but at least it's something to laugh about. We'll take László.
In his solo evening, Péter Aranyosi talks about craftsmen in a broader sense: doctors, sniffers, cooks and us, who sometimes enjoy and sometimes suffer the stumbles of craftsmen and ourselves in the workplaces of our lives.

The Karinthy-ringed comedian takes a look at "Hungarian public life bleeding from a thousand wounds" in his talky programme Böllérballett.

Miklós Fenyő's evergreen lines could be the beginning of the Karinthy-ringed rock'n'roll humorist László Hadházi's solo evening. Everything is given: enthusiastic audience, light and sound equipment, stage, kitchen and beer masterpieces, guitar, guest speakers. "I've picked up some local stories. Stories that are truly Hungarian, in the best and funniest sense of the word. There are many things in our mentality that a foreigner doesn't understand even if he has lived here for years. It's natural for us, but we end up laughing at it ourselves. That's what the title refers to: 'Méd in Hungeráj', says Laci, who is always in his element. He introduces the stage, talks about the family, takes me on trips abroad, inland, to Debrecen, even behind the soundproofed door of the oral surgery, sings with Bruti and Tibor Aradi, while all the stories are Hungarian. Very Hungarian.
Evolution is a unique attempt: the country's first themed stand-up evening summarises billions of years of life on Earth in an hour and a half, and answers long-unanswered questions that are not true but funny - so get adventurous! Find out how the serpent on the bicycle burned Adam and Eve at the Fall! Get on Noah's ark - as opposed to, say, the dinosaurs - or if you believe Darwin, learn about the party habits of cavemen, understand what a mosquito buzzes about and bet on pandas against polar bears. Just think: homo sapiens has been waiting for an evening like this for 500,000 years!
If there are still some blank spots in Zoltán Kőhalmi's life, or if you think you know everything, or if you have simply longed to see a formative performance of him, here it is! This is an evening to get to know the well-known comedian as intimately as you get to know a big-name tabloid actor. Through compromising footage and hidden memories, Zoltán himself gives a guided tour of the museum of his life. It's safe to say that the show is unique of its kind, as nothing like it has ever been done before. This revealing self-confession offers an all-round artistic experience, making a visit to any other cultural event superfluous. This ambitious performance will include action, excitement, animal trapping (not sure), life advice and everything you need to know about 8 Bocskai Street. Laughter and revealing information for the whole family!
