- 4 Apr 2014 7:00 AM
The Hungarian capital has been hosting an international theatre exchange as part of the annual Budapest Spring Festival. Around 20 companies from 13 countries have come together to perform and share ideas. The event, organised by the National Theatre, honours the 19th century Hungarian poet and playwright Imre Madách.
Andras Kozma, who organised the event, said: "We wanted to show exciting theatre to the audience and the performers."
“These companies have never been to Budapest before. For previous festivals we invited groups from neighbouring countries, but this year we have companies from Georgia, Bulgaria and the Tatar State Theatre, the Iraqi National Theatre and the Ankara State Theatre.”
