Schedule
The personal concert is a direct, collective journey into the depths of the individual - our inherited traits, our patterns, our family traditions and our ingrained memories - our backpack from birth.
To what extent does the baggage you are born with mark your path? What generational traditions do we pass on and what do we create for the next generation? What are we proud of in the long run, what have we been trying to get rid of for a long time? To what extent do external circumstances play a role in shaping our individuality and our way of thinking, and are there things that are encoded deep down? Is it possible to change, to break out? With this concert programme, the artists put their answers to these questions on stage.
Vera Jónás, Dóra Halas and the singers of Soharóza have spent many months exploring their family heritage, with a lot of research and focused discussion, often involving family members. The musical material and narrative of their new performance, entitled Back-Pack, was born from the most important experiences, shaped by community composition methods. The team analyses in minute detail the contents of the backpack that is born with us, in constant flux but never to be put down. The result is a concert that is sometimes poignantly honest and heartfelt, but also deeply loving, and one that is sure to bring back memories for the audience.
The concert is part of the CSET FEST.
Jurányi House
The Jurányi Production Community Incubator House has become a key venue in the capital's cultural life, a vibrant hub of the contemporary art scene.
Our aim in creating the Jurányi was to find a stable, shared home for the independent theatre and creative arts sector, providing the infrastructure necessary for its day-to-day operations. We wanted to create a cultural centre in the Buda area, a "contemporary art house" where theatre-loving young people could spend a few hours over a coffee or even a theatre performance, a creative children's activity or an acrobatic movement class, thus re-filling the abandoned educational institution with an active community life.
Jurányi is more than just a theatre in Buda, it is a creative and creative base where visitors can enjoy a varied artistic, community, and educational program, in addition to a regular repertoire of 300 productions a year. We are proud that the Jurányi House is now a graduation subject in some art schools.
