PETŐFI 200
This year we celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Sándor Petőfi. On the occasion of the bicentenary, our dance ensemble will pay tribute to the poet and his work with a new performance.
The production is based on Sándor Petőfi's Transylvanian roots. The performance presents the poet, who was born in the lowlands, and his relationship with the people of Szeklerland, the changes in the mood of the years 1848-1949, the enthusiasm and compassion that arose in the wake of current events. Petőfi proclaimed his republican principles everywhere, and was steadfast in stoking the fires of revolution. His nationalist poems are excellent pieces of Hungarian patriotic lyric poetry, which send the message that it is not enough to love the homeland idly, but that it is necessary to recreate it by fighting for freedom.
