Gül Baba

operetta

Translated by::

The Szigligeti Company will say goodbye to the old year with one of the most outstanding works of the Hungarian operetta literature, with Jenő Huszka’s Gül Baba. The New Year’s Eve premiere of the season of 2021/2022 will bring the audience into a legendary time and space – the age of Ottoman Hungary. The young Hungarian student, Gábor, picks a rose out of Gül Baba’s garden, to give it to his beloved, Leila. He doesn’t know, however, that the stealing of flowers is punished by strict law, moreover, his love is the daughter of the powerful Turkish religious leader. In the end, of course, against all odds, love triumphs...
