PETŐfi-SZELfi

PETŐfi-SZELfi
Premier: 2022-10-09 (3 years ago)
coproduced with Tomcsa Sándor Theatre from Odorheiu Secuiesc
There is an old question: what would the poet with the burning soul do were he alive? He would leave his homeland. He would turn to dust. He would stand on the stairs and recite: Rise up, Hungarians! He would run in politics. He would fail, as usual. He would win the József Attila Prize. He would have the same trouble with publishing, obviously. He would be too much like this, too much like that. Petőfi would be too much.
On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the birth of Petőfi Sándor, the Timișoara Hungarian Theatre in cooperation with the Odorheiu Secuiesc Tomcsa Sándor Theatre are paying tribute with a coproduction about the most famous figure of Hungarian literature.
