Vilmos Vajdai, actor and director graduated from the College of Theatrical Arts in 1986 and joined the Katona Company. Besides acting, he also spends time playing music and creating fine art. He founded TÁP Theatre and is its head.
“The company founded by Vilmos Vajdai and Győző Szabó more than fifteen years ago had its first performances in “Tilos az Á” (TÁP is an acronym for Tilos az Á Performance). The team has sworn to be open, to experiment with forms, to think in the genesis of theatre, to use not just dramatic, but literary, musical and artistic effects, along with modern stage craft and technology to enhance these effects. The company’s productions are usually once-in-a-lifetime performances, linked to place and time, a premier every night. If perchance the same production gets performed again, it still won’t be a repeat… For the cast of players is different every single time, depending on who has free time and who feels like playing.” (Ferenc Darvasi, Criticai Lapok)
This is the first time the Contemporary Drama Festival will host a premier: Curators, the TÁP Theatre’s brand-new project will be performed simultaneously in different rooms of the Tűzraktér building. The production will be unique, not just because of TÁP’s special line-up, but because it will be performed in a “found space”, in a space not theatrical in its conception.
“Their roars stem from amazing energy and passion. As Shakespeare wrote: Let him roar again! And again! Compared to their roars, I am fascinated by their silence. Theatre, without its tools of literature and story is still theatre, but a theatre where strength of character grabs our attention. The palpable humanity of the players, the power to inspire with their thoughts and experience… Their individuality makes the play interesting.” (Gál Péter Molnár, színház.hu)
