- contemporary
Their performance is based on Lois Lowry’s novel The Giver, set in a society that at first appears utopian, where everything seems to go perfectly well. Free of injustice, crime, violence, and hunger, this is a society where people believe they can live in harmony.

The Magic Flute, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 31 October
- 31 Oct 2024 7:00 PM
