LAM and the Vígszinház
“On the first Saturday of the month, the Jászság 3 group travelled to Budapest to spend a great day together. First we visited the Light Art Museum, where we admired the Superluminal exhibition. We were able to see works by more than 40 internationally renowned foreign and Hungarian artists. Among the artists are some from Hungary, whose works focus on light, but go beyond the physics definition of light as electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived by the human eye. The group was fascinated by the works on display, and everyone was able to find pieces that appealed to them. For me, my favourite was Gyula Várnai’s Object Memories, as I was enchanted by its appearance. I am dazzled by the detail it contains and the symbolism of the work. My other great favourite was Vera Molnár’s OTTWW. At first glance, one might think it’s just randomly placed yarns, but once you know the background, it makes a lot of sense.
Our evening continued at the Vígszínház, where we saw the play My Friend Harvey. The title character in this two-act comedy is a white rabbit over two metres tall. Harvey is Uncle Elwood’s best friend, who some people think doesn’t exist except in his head, but in reality causes a lot of trouble and misunderstanding. The play perfectly builds up what it is like to live next to such a man, and how people deal with it. Along with the thought-provoking scenes, there are also humorous ones that keep the viewer interested. The comedy shows us a mirror that it is better to be yourself and not change at any cost. The play, starring Peter Rudolf, had fantastic performances by fantastic actors, and the pleasant music made the performance even more enjoyable, and everyone gave the play positive reviews during the interval between acts. Our opinion remained unchanged at the end of the last act, and everyone left the theatre satisfied. In conclusion, a very entertaining and instructive comedy. We had a great time together!” Tilda Tamasi, Jászság Group 3
