Sándor Hevesi Theatre, Municipal theatre in Zalaegerszeg, Hungary
The Sándor Hevesi Theatre is a cultural venue in central Zalaegerszeg with approximately 600 seats. It hosts various types of performances ranging from drama and musicals to children's shows.
The building was created in the 1950s initially as a cultural centre for local communities. A major renovation in the 1980s transformed it into a professional theatre venue.
The theatre is named after a local writer and presents both contemporary works and classical pieces for audiences of different ages. The stage reflects the connection between local culture and broader European theatre traditions.
The theatre is located in the downtown area and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors should check what shows are running, as the programme changes regularly throughout the year.
The theatre opened in 1983 with Imre Madách's famous play 'The Tragedy of Man', a classic work of Hungarian literature. This opening marked a symbolic beginning for the venue as a professional stage.
