Krétakör Stages Marathon of Best Works

English

The troupe will bring its production PestiEsti to the Trafó starting at 8:30pm on June 10 and 11. The performance will be followed by a party in the Trafó Bar. At 11pm on the 10th, Balázs Temesvári and his group I.O.N., who provide the music for PestiEsti, will play a concert. On the following evening at 11pm, Imre Bozsóki, who wrote the music for the piece, will play with his band, offering a mix of rock, rap, funk, Balkan and psychedelic.

 
On June 14 and 15, the troupe will bring a marathon to the Merlin Theatre, showing Leonce and Lena at 11am on both days, The Seagull at 3pm and hamlet.ws at 10pm. In between the last two productions, Vienna's Burgtheater will perform Hamlet? - which Krétakör director Árpad Schilling brought to the Austrian capital in 2005 - at 8pm. Hamlet? is a minimalist version of Shakespeare's great work and is a kind of preface to hamlet.ws. Hamlet? will be performed in German with Hungarian supertitles.
 

An exhibition of photographs by Zsolt Lukács of the Krétakör's performances abroad of The Seagull and hamlet.ws will be on display in the Merlin's café.

 
On June 18-20, the troupe will perform the Nibelung Residency in the recently shut down National Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology. The performance will start at 6pm on all three evenings.
 
BLACKland, which the troupe prepared for Hungary's EU accession in 2004, will be performed at the Millenáris Teátrum on June 25-27, at 8pm on all three evenings. The Krétakör has performed the piece in 23 cities around the world since its premiere.
 

On June 26 and 27, films of the Krétakör's productions will be shown in the Millenáris Teátrum between 4pm and 6pm. Entry will be free of charge.
