The Swing [A hinta]
T.I.E (Theatre in Education) project. It is made by the Kava Theatre Association. The scenario of the performance of was made by the improvisations of the creators.
Director and writer: András Sereglei, T.I.E Professional: Gábor Takács
Premier: 12th May 2009.

The purpose of the program was working together on the subject of violence. The programme - as intended - created an opportunity for the participants a common recognition, naming and analysis of abusive situations familiar from their own circumstances, or at least partial transformation.

In theatrical scenes, the story of a four-member band unfolds. They spend their everyday lives on a playground and they constantly bringing one of them into a humiliating state ("give him/her a swing"). In the scenes, there is no clear answer as to why all this is happening, what is really the meaning of continuous aggression, and what the adult world (especially the emerging teacher) has to do with it.
