Eleven minority theatres -- Bulgarian, Greek, Croatian, Polish, German, Roma, Romanian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovene and Ukrainian - will present 18 performances in eleven languages with Hungarian supertitles, simultaneous translation or printed synopsis.
This year's ARCUSFEST will focus on productions that highlight the creativity of students and involve non-professional adult actors.
ARCUSFEST aims to help minority communities develop bonds through theatre.
