Out-of-the-Ordinary Spaces

"All the world’s a stage." Shakespeare's phrase, in the context of the environmental and built spaces around us, is made tangible through our series of theatre programmes entitled Unconventional Spaces. We transport the theatre into the public realm – streets, gyms, parks, markets, beaches, and to non-classical locations – mines, mountaintops, observatories.

Unconventional Spaces aims to present the broadest possible spectrum of theatrical genres. Everything from non-verbal, visual and physical theatre to plays using the formal language of puppetry is in the repertoire. From performances for children to specifically underground plays, we go on an adventure on one Tuesday every month.

In addition to Hungarian theatre companies, French and Japanese performers will join us as part of the project.

The series of programmes will emphasise the puppet theatre genre, to plays specifically for adolescents or adults. In Veszprém and the region, we want to instil the idea in the minds that "puppetry is a genre, not an age group".

In 2023, 12 plays will be performed at five venues - in Veszprém and the region.
