Sziget Festival to offer theatre, ballet, museum programs

English

The theatre events will include performances by Danza Contemporanea de Cuba, Stockholm 59 Degrees North and Hofesh Shechter. They will be performed on five different stages during the festival, to run between August 13 and 17, Viktoria Veto said.

 
A special treat for theatre fans might be a performance by the Vietnamese National Water Puppet Theatre with its unique visual effects and unusual figures.
 
Museums, including the Museum of Fine Arts, the National Gallery, the National Museum and other large public collections, will have an opportunity to offer their own programmes at the festival for the first time ever.
 
Similarly to earlier years, the literary events will serve to complement the festival's main profile which is music for the younger set.
