Budapest, MU Theatre 2022.
Are communities present in the life of 21st-century man? Or do we prefer to exist in the world on our own, alone, given the modern way of life? How has the enforced isolation of the COVID era and the rise of the digital world changed all this? When does being alone become private?
These and similar questions started the eight-month creative process with MU Theatre's company of retired people: GHT and the Nemes Nagy Ágnes Art High School students.
The collective reflections resulted in stories, fictional stories of their own and eerily similar to reality, all telling the story of how loneliness and solitude appear in the lives of a modern-day pensioner and a high school student. How can young and old connect?
