The Priestess

Duration 90′

Calendar

Sunday 11/11/2012 from 19:00 to 20:30

The Priestess, the final part the Crisis trilogy, is a tale of a mother, Lilla Gát. The previously celebrated actress leaves the theatres of the capital city for the country side in order to teach drama to young Hungarian and Roma children. However, her unconventional and unprepared approach doesn’t get the reception she expects. The performance is set in rural parts of central Romania, features local students, and combines innovative drama pedagogy methods with theatre and film, on the border of reality and fiction.
