The ruthless sarcasm and ingenious clowning, which Chaplin uses as he plays both the little barber and the great dictator, relieved millions of their anxieties. His unforgettable accessories, the moustache, the shoes, and the bowler hat along with his gestures have all imprinted themselves onto our minds.

The story takes place just before WW2, in a time when poverty and madness reached a level like never before. The faith in humanity and freedom had failed. It was on the advice of Hungarian born film director and producer Alexander Korda, that Chaplin started working on The Great Dictator. The film follows the development of Hitler’s Reich and the hardships the Jews had to endure, up until the occupation of Austria.

Later in his life Chaplin said: „Had I known at the time of the horrors of the German concentration camps, I wouldn’t have made The Great Dictator, I wouldn’t have made a joke out of the murderous lunacy of the Nazis.”

Enikő Eszenyi is the first theatre director in Hungary to receive the licence of the Chaplin family to stage The Great Dictator.

It is probably impossible to summarize this miraculous story of Mowgli, Bagheera who escaped from the cage of the human society, the wise Baloo, the mysterious Kaa or the vengeful Shere Khan. The Jungle Book is about birth and death, solitude and partnership, about the magic of youth – so everything which can happen with a kid who had grown up with wolves.

comedy in two acts

tragic comedy Based on the translation of Imre Kurdi the adaptation for Vígszínház Budapest was made by: Hilda Hársing and Péter Rudolf
