ISZN (Literary and Drama Days) 2018.
As you know, you all know how much I love the theater, and I’m happy to share that this year is an ISZN year again in Balassagyarmat! This is a literary and drama gathering held every other year for amateur theater groups, where actors perform up close—just an arm’s length away from the audience (and the professional jury).
From Friday to Sunday on a February weekend, about 10 plays are performed by amateur artists from all over the country, and even from across the border. I’ve been following the festival since I was a high school girl, then as a young adult, a pregnant mom, and now for the second time with my golden-haired child!
True, most of the performances deal with adult themes, so we can’t always sit through every show together—but this year, all three of us could hardly wait to sit among the audience and escape the outside world for these exceptional hours!
One extra special part of the event is that the opening ceremony featured the VÉ-TÓ duo, consisting of Mami and Gyula—who has been a good family friend for as long as I can remember! They play truly joyful music!
