20.00 - Krétakör Company: BLACKland
Children's show for adults only!
Performed by: Gergely Bánki, Eszter Csákányi, József Gyabronka, László Katona, Annamária Láng, Zoltán Mucsi, Zsolt Nagy, Borbála Péterfy, Roland Rába, Lilla Sárosdi, Sándor Terhes, Tilo Werner, Attila Tóth

BLACKland is the collective creation of the Krétakör Company: a dark, grotesque and satirical vision of the world we live in. The stories are based on the SMS messages collected since 1 January 2004, which compose the daily "news" in 160 characters. These inspired the actors to improvise scenes and musical numbers which add up not to a traditional drama, but to an absurd feast, an initiation ceremony of sorts.
Venue: Millenáris Theatre (Fény u. 20-24. 2nd district)
21.30 - Reception
21:45 - Lajos Kathy Horváth plays the violin
On behalf of the Ministry of Cultural Heritage Minister András

"Passage to India" to the Hungarian National Gallery.
The donation took place at the occassion of the conference. The
painting was taken over by the director Mr Loránd Bereczky.

He is active as composer, pianist, saxophonist, harpsichord player and jazz musician. The piano duo will perform music, which was written for this formation by Milko Lazar and which is crossing the borders between classics and jazz music.

Hungarian translation at the plenary sessions.
