Consisting of two pieces each, the program has been adapted to the full-size stage while retaining its hallmark blend of dramatic impact, humor, and deeply confessional mode. The second installment has been reconceived to exploit real-time video technology with images instantly responding to the movements of the creators. Prior to its US debut, the production will be previewed on a single occasion before audiences of the Jurányi Incubator House.

The first half of the evening program is I Will Be All of These Things One Day, a solo piece by Réka Szabó in which the protagonist is simultaneously present as a little girl, a middle-aged woman, and an old woman. The performance is geared around the question of whether you can escape from the tower where you locked yourself up by the time you turned 44 years of age.

I Don’t Remember Being Raised Like This is a subjective inventory of recollections, both real and fictitious, collected by each company member in 7-year intervals, up to the imagined age of 77. The show was inspired by a workshop with Petra Ardai, founder of the Space Theatre in The Netherlands.

“Extraordinary.” (Luke Jennings,The Guardian)
