Intro |
when the first light goes up on the stage, we don’t know yet the following lights of the scene.
when the first character appears on the stage, we don’t know yet who comes next.
when the first move starts, we don’t know yet whom it loses, whom it finds.
when the first word is uttered, we don’t know yet who talks and to whom, at all.
we watch the performance, yet we have no idea what is happening to us in the eye of a needle in another reality.
which is not ours.
which happens after the first light, the first figure of flesh and blood, the first movement, the first voice.
which happens after what we already know.
what we already know, and yet we know nothing after that.
the first and the last movement.
the first and the last sentence.
that much, maybe.
we all swim between light and darkness, on the stage of time tailored for us solely. |

MASZK Association is an entirely non-institutional and
non-governmental, non-profit organisation. Since the association was
founded in 1991, our aim has always been to introduce and help
experimenting, innovative artistic communities. As a result of our
activity, the best artists working in a minority-marginal position
could perform in Szeged. We pay special attention not only to introduce
the most famous groups from Western-Europe and from our region to our
audience, but to be open towards newborn, progressive initiatives as
well. In the past twelve years, the names of the Old
Synagogue, that of THEALTER and of MASZK have gradually formed a close
association. So far we have presented more than 130 groups from 26
countries of the world in our town. We have participated in several
co-productions, carried out continuous production management, have
established festivals, and our book and CD publishing is widely
acknowledged. From civil management to supporting young talents, we
have, in every way, contributed to increasing the
national and international fame of Szeged.
The main objective of MASZK is to finalise its presence in the Old
Synagogue by creating ALTERRA, a Contemporary Performing Arts Centre. |
