Schedule
The guests of the Pension are all fighting for a fairer, more liveable, better world, each in their own field. But at what cost? And who are they? Are they the heroes of our times, or provocateurs, or bored fools?
The Hope Pension is a documentary show focusing on grassroots initiatives - the drivers of society who often find themselves in the crosshairs of politics. The play deals with their motivations, their successes and their failures. Not only their personal stories, but they themselves play a leading role in the production, alongside the members of the company.
Through them, the staff of the Pension tries to understand where to find hope nowadays, so that one day they too can return to their everyday work: the theatre, with renewed vigour.
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.
