Dear Friend,
Theatre Olympics in Viszák?! Of course.
The Kaszás Attila Barn Theatre wishes to take advantage of this opportunity in Hungarian theatre history to present the miracle of fifteen years of history of a bucolic space. „To see by seeing.”
It was a sense of absence and the intention of my actor friend Attila Kaszás to strengthen cross-border culture, to send a message from Upper Hungary (Felvidék), and then his sudden death in 2007, that raised this community-strengthening cause.
At the heart of his thought, the Theatre - intended to transmit our national culture!
"Old is New" is the value-preserving idea that gave birth to the first message garden, the Fairy Garden (Tündérkert) in Viszák, the work of forester and pomologist Gyula Kovács, who saved our indigenous fruit culture.
This made 2009 the year in which the identity of the KAPSZ was established.
Everything that is organically with us today was born there and then.
László Tenk, painter, Lőrinc Csernyus, architect, Gyula Kovács, pomologist, Erika Miklósa, opera singer and many other supportive people from Viszák validate our intention.
It is almost impossible to list how we have moved through the last fifteen years in an expanding community.
But we certainly have 15 years of healing behind us.
Best regards,
József Szarvas
