THEATRE

THE PRINCE WHO LONGS FOR IMMORTALITY
_{Manna Production, Budapest, Hungary, 2021}
In this puppet performance, a desperate prince seeks the elusive World of Immortality, declaring, “Father, I don’t want to die!” The Hungarian folk tale unfolds as a captivating game of chess between Death and Immortality, exploring the enigmatic nature of time and symbolising the challenges of a material crisis.

_{The performance was nominated for the Hungarian Theatre Critics Award, Best Children’s/Youth Theatre Performance (Budapest, 2022).

The 3-Story Book
_{Griff Puppet Theatre & University of Theatre and Film Arts, Budapest, Hungary, 2017}

This contemporary puppet performance was my thesis at the University of Theatre and Film Arts in Budapest. The progressive puppet show is my coming-of-age story in which I talk about serious taboo topics: death, the Holocaust, racism, complicated national identity, Hungarian historical traumas. In the performance I use many different puppet techniques in an experimental post-dramatic structure.

_{The monodrama was selected for various theater festivals in Hungary & got best puppet world awards at the international puppet festival in Békéscsaba , Hungary in 2017}

Hamlet
_{Ciróka Puppet Theatre, Kecskemét, Hungary, 2019}
Our performance is a mask adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, told entirely from Hamlet’s perspective. Set within the depths of his mind and imagination, it follows a young man struggling with distrust of his family, and a profound moral crisis.
