Budapest, TRAFÓ - Contemporary House of Arts, 2019.

This theatre play is about three young students who move in together in a rented flat. Each of them has a different reason for choosing to live together: one is fleeing from his parents' tight embrace, another from college, and the third wants to live with his lover. In the new situation, different ideas and desires soon lead to conflicts. The conflicts are often rooted in the three young people's different attitudes to money and their various financial backgrounds.

 

The story deals with financial issues that are fundamental for young people starting on their own:

- should I take out a student loan or work while at university?

- Should I accept a job with a good salary and material goods if it distracts me from my desired/imagined career path? (should I give up my dreams in exchange for a good salary?)

- Should I accept (for how long and to what extent) financial support from my parents in exchange for their interference in my life and expectations that I can't entirely agree with?

 

The above questions will be explored together by the actors and the young people during the play through theatrical forms.
