The Janus University Theather performed László Darvasi:Crazy Helga. The air was getting hot, and not just beacause of the artistic set, the expressive costumes, and the good actorleading established by the many-year-old routine of the director. A real theatrical performance took place. There are serious trump cards in the hand of János Mikuli - the well-known specialist of the contemporary hungarian theatrical drama. The real speciality means that mature, professional actors was playing in the performance. And not just anybody: for example Kati Sólyom, who was a great character of the legendary times of the University Stage in the sixties. And in an interesting characterrole we could see László Juhász in wheelchair, who was outstanding figure of the ity Pécs in thoose times as actor director, theatherleader. Big frisking on the stage: better and better male episodeactors sparkled individually and in team, too: Péter Vidéki, András Domonyai, László Inhóf and Ferenc Köles. András Ernő Tóth could hold a (or two or three) main character. Tünde Gelencsér was "fresh meat" in the team, and in title role. Her act could be envied by her colleagues.
There was also ball, hot, level! This was real game, but everything ran in an elegant and professional way. The applause and success was well-deserved. The audience could swim, too.
