Demeter has performed during two consecutive theatrical seasons the part of Lojko Zobar both in Hungarian and Romanian (with inserts in Rromani), being also the co-author for the musical performance upon the cult film 'The Gipsy Camp Vanishes into the Blue'. The history of contemporary theatre mentions him as the only Romanian actor who took part in the opening performance at the inauguration of the new National Theatre of Hungary in Budapest. He had international success interpreting Alessandro de Medici in the 'French Hamlet' (Lorenzaccio by Musset) as well as Claudius in 'original' Hamlet. He has played Shakespeare's leading male roles in three different languages (Hungarian, Romanian, German), and even sings Friar Lorenzo in the musical adaptation upon Romeo and Juliet in the National Opereta Theatre's top success in Bucharest.
