During the month of November, the company will embark on a series of national tours with the recently premiered Liliom and a pub theatre production, Portuguese, a product of the 2022-23 season. Besides touring, of course, Figura's loyal audiences will not be overlooked, with a number of performances on the Foundry stage as the year draws to a close.
The live music performance of Ferenc Molnár’s play will take place first at 19:00 on 9 November at the Foundry, followed by the production at 19:00 on 18 November at the National Theatre of Târgu Mures, and then on the 20th of November at 17:00 in Satu Mare, as part of the 11th Interethnic Theatre Festival. Liliom is directed by István Albu, with Erika Márton as set and costume designer and Szabolcs Korpos as musical director.
"Concert from the well-known drama by Ferenc Molnár or a dramaturgy based on the songs of the Tankcsapda? I'll help you: there is no right answer. "Double or nothing." - the director István Albu must have thought, and dreamed up his own carousel for the Figura Studio Theatre." - says Alíz Stan Lilla, about the production which is heavy in visuals and sound.
After the Liliom tour, the company will head to Cluj-Napoca, where theatre lovers in the treasure city will be able to see a story set in a fantasy village called Irgács on Thursday 21st of November at 7pm at the Planetarium Café. Zoltán Egressy's Portugal was directed by Árpád Tóth, accompanied by Barbara Máthé, dramaturg, Gábor Ila, and costume designer Alexandra Pál. The guest performance of the Portuguese pub theatre production in Cluj was supported by the National Cultural Fund. You can also meet the people of Irgács in Gheorgheni in OneSeS Pub on Saturday 16 November.
The company's latest production, House on the Border, by Polish playwright Sławomir Mrożek, was staged by Attila Keresztes, with sets and costumes by Blanka-Alíz Bajkó and music and sound design by Csaba Boros. The performance, which is a mirror power and of human nature, can be seen at the beginning and end of the month, on the 6th and 28th of November in the studio of the Foundry.
