"I got closer to József Attila. His life story touched me, and I realized that such stories still exist around me today." On Wednesday at noon, we presented our performance titled I am not, only others see me, based on the texts of József Attila, to the students of the József Attila High School in Újbuda, at the B29 Youth Community Space. This unique literature class, supported by the Municipality of Budapest’s 11th District (Újbuda), provided an ideal space for students to delve into the poet’s life and texts and reflect on them further. We thank the school for their trust, the students for their openness, and for the thoughts and questions shared during the post-performance discussion. Topics such as loneliness, the absence of parents, the search for direction, future vision, love, and its absence were discussed. It was great to see how relevant József Attila’s texts still are for today’s youth!

"The performance had a profound impact. It made me reflect and realize that I should be much more grateful. On Monday at noon in Kézdivásárhely, we presented our documentary performance As Water Reflects the Face at the Vigadó Cultural Center, as part of an event organized by Dr. Csiha Kálmán Reformed College. It was wonderful to feel the interest, attention, and engagement of the young audience with the scenes. During the post-performance audience meeting, we were amazed by the personal thoughts shared and the many questions posed by the students. It felt rewarding to reflect together on props, symbols, or scenes. There were many discussions about future vision, individual responsibility, paying attention to each other and to ourselves, loneliness, fitting in, love, and our relationships with parents. It was truly a great final performance and conversation to end the tour! We are grateful for the shared thoughts, the trust of the school, and for the warm hospitality and organization by teacher Zsuzsánna Rancz Gyárfás."

"This performance helped me get closer to József Attila and better understand these texts. It was very personal!" On Monday morning in Budapest, we presented our performance titled I am not, only others see me, based on the texts of József Attila, to the twelfth-grade students of the St. Angela Franciscan Elementary and High School. Supported by the Municipality of Budapest's 2nd District and organized by the Svung Creative Association, this unique literature class provided students with an opportunity to delve deeply into the poet's writings. During the discussion following the performance, the texts presented allowed us to reflect on ourselves and marvel at the relevance of József Attila’s poetry today. Topics such as poverty, exclusion, marginalization, conformity, and the challenges of the future were discussed. We thank everyone for their shared thoughts and Dr. Tünde Kárpáti, the class teacher, for the organization and trust!

If you really want to achieve something, you'll find a way; if you don't want it enough, you'll find an excuse.” (Katinka Hosszú) Two members of our troupe, Misi Fazakas and Oszkár Mucha, were part of the Transylvanian Actors' Running Team, which achieved great results on Sunday at the 39th SPAR Budapest Marathon Festival. The team, consisting of Aba Sebestyén, Róbert Fekete, Misi Fazakas, and Oszkár Mucha, completed the marathon as a four-person relay. Congratulations to the team, and heartfelt thanks to actress Erika Tankó for enthusiastically organizing the group and bringing everyone together. We also recognize her for completing the marathon distance in a two-person relay. We wish everyone much success and enjoyable training for the upcoming period, and we will start our next Healthy Lifestyle Erasmus project on October 28!
