The new joint première of Tibor Kocsák and Tibor Miklós, the successful co-writers of Be good till death and of Anna Karenina!

An exciting crime case gets interlocked with a heart-rending, beautiful love story in this outstanding work of Hungarian literature.

Poor Riches is much more than just mandatory literature for students!
It’s a parable effective even today about loyalty, passion, honesty and betrayal, about embittering heartlessness of the wealthy and emotional richness capable of inducing happiness even in poverty.

The surging melodies of the musical, its lines full of passion and humour, live up to Jókai’s intellectuality.  We live in times when more and more of us long for true emotions, and try to escape from the monotony of everyday-life, rediscovering the beauty of romanticism.
That is why the musical version of Poor Riches is destined to become a box-office hit!

In the group staging the play we find such star performers as
Csaba Zöld, Renáta Krassy, Mark Zentai, Titania Valentin, Monika Ullmann, Gyula Vikidal.
