i'm back

i'm back at blogspot and back in hungary too. for how long? hell, who could tell?
especailly if you take into consideration that soon after my plane landed on these royal lands, I packed my nice little Samsonite (which was carefully chosen back in the time, basing the decision on its color and its size), and left for Graz. And then stayed in Sentilj, SLovenia for a while.

the theater conference (TWISFER) was on theater works in social fields - so not really my focus, but i've learned a lot of interesting concpets and the workshop was great. i ended up participating in the wamr ups of three different methods (political theater, playback theater, forum theater), got to know more about the latter two and worked on a piece with Adrian Jackson, from the Boal school of the Theater of the Oppressed. I got to be the protagonist for the forum piece in which we modelled teh conferecne situation. My Barbara character was taken after Susanne. She was informed about our attempt in advance, but ina away , i think, she got offended. not really though - cuz she wouldn't wanna take up the responsibility of a badly organized conference, but...anyways: it was a nice piece, which got people react to it and that was important.
I havent heard of forum theater before - did i just have my ears shut over mitch's classes?? but i've learned a lot about it now.
and also: i got to meet a lot of interesting people form the field. plus, my horizon on theater and its application have widened.

and now: i'm planning a trip to Italy for the end of october. i'm gonna be staying in Imola with the Rising Moon Theater Company (Compagnie Teatrale della Luna Crescente). they are making political theater in today's italy. im so excited. im so excited.

gosh, if someone asks me wehre i'm gonna be today a year ago???
