In a month, on the 13th of November, the Hungarian premiere of Double or Nothing will be held at the
Budapest Central Theater.
Woody Allen's two one-act plays are combined into one play, and will be seen in this form for the
first time in the whole world.
Translated and directed by Dávid Puskás, a full-blooded comedy about the border between human
relationships and dream realities arrives, in which no one is what they seem. Or what they believe
themselves to be. In the humorous frenzy of love, disappointment and desire, Nóra Parti,
Steve Hajdu, Gábor Hevér, Kata Pálfi, Attila Magyar, Bence Szécsi and Mariann Hermányi willbe seen
on stage.
"Dupla vagy semmi" (Double or Nothing) was created by adapting two one-act plays by Woody Allen:
"Old Saybrook" (2003) and *Honeymoon Hotel* (2011). In the first story, a dentist hosts his sister
and her husband—a plastic surgeon. The situation descends into a classic, fast-paced comedy of
errors and infidelity when the former owners of the house unexpectedly show up. The piece premiered
in March 2003 at the Atlantic Theater Company in New York, directed by the author, as part of a
collection titled "Writer’s Block" (which also included the play "Riverside Drive").
