Taetr Strefa Ciszy, one of the most successful Polish alternative theatres teaches the public to fly in the hall of the Dürer Garden. The group formed in 1991 and lead by Adam Ziajski has for years been distancing itself from traditional theatres, staging their performances in unusual venues. Learning to Fly examines the interaction of freedom and fear. Following the myth of Ikaros, the group examines the question of whether modern men can achieve freedom by overcoming his fear, weather we have the courage to overcome the binding power of conventions. This provocative performance draws in the public: it actually wants to determine the possible extent of its involvement, with an attempt at finding the point where people lose courage and would no longer dare follow the actors.

A good dozen people – with suitcases in hand – march in procession along the street. Like some creatures from no man’s land, they have no knowledge of the inhabitants of this world, their way of life and rules. They are just discovering the city, its habits and secrets. They are Kamchátka. The name should not mislead you; it has nothing to do with the place by that name in one of the remotest corners of Russia. Of course the group has indeed come a long way. Adrian Schvarzstein’s company has been guest performing in many parts of Europe, always away from regular theatres. They play in all kinds of venues, their improvised performances attract passers-by for a public. This international company of actors, musicians, clowns, puppet-artists and film-makers will now discover the streets and people of Budapest.

Director > Gisèle Vienne

Dramatic advisor > Dennis Cooper
Music > Peter Rehberg | El Mundo Frio of Corrupted
Light > Patrick Riou

Associate producer: DACM
With the collaboration of the Quartz - Scène nationale de Brest
Coproduction: Le Quartz - Scène nationale de Brest, Centre Chorégraphique National de Franche-Comté à Belfort dans le cadre de l’accueil-studio and Centro Parraga - Murcia.


David Brooks is spending his life sentence in jail. He was imprisoned for his involvement in the mass murder orchestrated by the insane Dean Corll in the early 1970s when Brooks was still in his teens. Behind the bars Brooks develops an interest in puppet art and performs puppet shows for students of psychology about murder. The shocking piece for a single player and five puppets is a prison monologue by the one-time culprit on innate human brutality. First performed by the French DACM group this March, the performance is an adaptation of a short novel based on a real life story by the American novelist, Dennis Cooper [1953]. The play is directed by Gisèle Vienne, a young philosopher and puppet artist and is performed by Jonathan Capdevielle, the French puppet wizard extolled to the skies by the media.

Difficult to pigeonhole as far as its genre is concerned, this performance is set in an extraordinary environment: the set used by director Christoph Marthaler’s 1992 stage version of Faust, an unfinished play by Fernando Pessoa. Sanne van Rijn, a Fleming, is a creator with many qualifications, with a background in classical ballet, photography and audiovisual art. As an actor, he used to be involved in performances by Marthaler, Johan Simons and the Forced Entertainment. In his current performance, however, he passes the lead over to his viewers. Or to viewing, to be more accurate. Van Rijn wants to make us aware of the responsibility of being the kind of conscious spectator whose presence is essential to any real theatre. He is most careful in combining the restricted action he puts on stage with minimalist music, a visual aspect and movement, by that forcing the public change their way of perception, part with their anticipations and preconceptions.

Barreras [Barriers]

With > Iñaki Mata


Iñaki Mata, one of the most many-sided personalities in Spanish theatre makes his Budapest debut with two performances. In the street theatre project Barreras [Barriers], the most important part is that of a wheelchair. The performance imbued with humour and irony is about the physical and social barriers we confront in our everyday lives with an eye on the chances of their demolition.

The group formed of a class of last year’s graduates of the Actors’ Academy is paying off an old debt by performing at the Budapest Autumn Festival Heinrich von Kleist’s 1808 key drama, Hermann’s Battle. Played in Roman costumes, it was born from the horrible experiences of the Napoleonic wars and with some simplification might be said to be about German superiority. Not by accident did it later become an important point of reference in nazi Germany, even though it has never been a pure thesis drama of the ideology of nationalism. The conflict of individual values and collective responsibility, the possibilities and dangers in manipulative political propaganda and the creation of an enemy image – these are the questions discussed with merciless clarity and insight by Kleist in what is probably the most demonic work in his oeuvre.

Barreras [Barriers] | Batuta [Conductor's Baton]

With > Iñaki Mata

Iñaki Mata, one of the most many-sided personalities in Spanish theatre makes his Budapest debut with two performances. In the street theatre project Barreras [Barriers], the most important part is that of a wheelchair. The performance imbued with humour and irony is about the physical and social barriers we confront in our everyday lives with an eye on the chances of their demolition. In the other performance Iñaki Mata has put on stage with Taun Taun Theatre, the group he founded in the late 1980ies, dancing music notes are in the focus of attention. The special puppet performance entitled Batuta [Conductor’s Baton] is a musical joke about waiting, travelling and music. Music notes and staves actually come to life and turn into music instruments, human figures, various fish and flowers under our surprised and watching eyes.
Commissioned in co-operation with Taun Taun Theatre.
