The novel, on which the musical is based, Daniel Keyes' Flowers for Algernon is one of the defining pieces of the young adult fiction genre. It had been translated into 27 languages and sold more than five million copies worldwide.
The story tells the tale of 32 years old, mentally disabled Charlie Gordon, who, although presents like a 6 year old, desperately and gladly joins a medical experiment to become “normal'.

Some say that human beings are like complex computers with their brains being their hard drives. However, the experiment that Charlie Gordon participates, and which potentially is one of the landmarks of the human brain-computer parallelism, raises an important question: how far should we go in experimenting on human beings?

Gaetano Donizetti MARIA STUARDA Opera in three acts, in Italian, with Hungarian, English, and Italian subtitles
„Hegedűs a háztetőn… valahol mind azok vagyunk. Megpróbálunk egy letisztult dallamot kicsalni, miközben egyensúlyozunk, hogy ne szegjük nyakunkat. Nem könnyű!”
Vincenzo Bellini’s final opera is a veritable apotheosis of bel canto that should only be presented to an audience with…
