"The most important prerequisites of the performance are mirrors (stage design: Mária Ambrus), which show different reflections of body and soul. The latter is almost unknowable in the world of the performance, the first is present in its brutal reality. (...)
The smart staging of Sándor Zsótér rolls the story, defeating the scenics of the apartment theatre. The Maladype performance is like a fresh flower planted on a dung-hill, its extremes are the most exciting.”

Viktória Mátyás: A true image born from fake spectacles
Written by Éri Ildikó
"Maladype Theatre has its own round of audience to experiment with styles and tools. In The Balcony, with the help of Sándor Zsótér, the performers take all the opportunities to push the envelope of both the Genet-play and the audience."

"Zsótér’s The Balcony is for people who consider theatre as an intellectual play and don’t mind if a performance involves more than just gazing on the changing of spectacular pictures, but instead, enjoy watching actors in a relatively small space with minimalistic stage design (Mária Ambrus), with only a few prerequisites, playing unusually difficult role switches. The actors know well who they play, but for the audience, in the end, reality and imagination really start to mingle."

Fehér Elephánt: Balcony “The interpretation of Sándor Zsótér shows us with lazer precision"
Written by Éri Ildikó
“The interpretation of Sándor Zsótér shows us with lazer precision the genius of Genet’s work, the importance of the identity-strengthening function of playing and changing roles. (...) this performance is a milestone in the Hungarian line of Genet interpretations. And it is almost a miracle! that this can come to life in the 15 square meters of Maladype Theatre. ”

“The coproduction of Maladype and Gyula Castle Theatre is a brave undertaking, pointing to an up-to-date concept of theatre with an original attitude, breaking the boundaries of routine, a poetic text, a smashing spectacle and original music. After the chlorinated tapwater of Budapest, Gyula’s water is refreshing. “from clean mountain springs.” with a full glass!”

“We find the sensitivity of Zoltán Balázs, the fully-fledged talent of the Maladype actors, a composer who pays close attention to the vocal range of singers, the costume designer’s, Anikó Németh’s humor with biedermeier-shaded eclectic style on one side and the demands of the global theatrical market on the other. I believe this anciently puzzling, post-biedermeier performance with its pyramid-like Acropolis with four (probably folding) staircases has great chances at festivals.”

György Fodor: Csongor and Tünde on 15 square meters
Written by Éri Ildikó
“Zoltán Balázs saw it clearly that huge spaces are not necessary to visualize the fight between the Selves. 15 square meters were more than enough to let the audience follow the storyline, which unfolded not too didacticly, but with a truly promising directorial concept.”
