During the intermission, actors will perform in the style of KyĹŤgen, a Japanese form of traditional comic theater which exhibits minimal motifs and short, humorous acts, traditionally performed between scenes of tragedy. 

The event will be held next Wednesday, May 17, from 7.30 p.m. at the Budapest Music Center at Mátyás utca 8 in District IX. Admission is free of charge and the event is open to the public; however, the number of places is limited, and seats will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.
