Elosztó - Sétaszínházi előadás a IX. kerületben

The world is changing. In Hungary, in Budapest, in the IX district. You can't see it yet, but you can feel it. The increasingly moody people, the irritated public transport, the hopeless tiredness at the end of the day. These are the last hours, the last minutes before inertia, the last possible days of change. The Distributors are a group of people still able to act. Their mission is to explore the hidden stories and missions of the city. To see the human faces in the grey, the personal stories behind the walls. To bring to light the hidden, forgotten and unheard stories of the IX district and its people. But hearing is not enough. It is time for action...

The ELOSZTÓ is a participatory walking theatre performance on the streets of the IX district. It invites us to leave the walls of the theatre together and immerse ourselves in the real life of the district, to get to know its characters. We will have the opportunity to get to know the perhaps invisible heroes of the district. The performance is the culmination of six months of artistic research, in which we play together and reflect on the incapacitated, the situation of the helping professions and our own social responsibility.
