Magda, The Tailor
Live play in Hungarian only

This evocative one-act performance, Magda, a Szabó, offers a rare and intimate look into the life and legacy of one of Hungary’s greatest literary voices.
Told through a fresh and deeply personal lens, the play explores Magda Szabó’s extraordinary journey — not only as a celebrated writer, but also as a woman, wife, and partner to fellow writer Tibor Szobotka. Based on literary records and personal documents, the production reveals untold dimensions of her world, raising timeless questions that continue to resonate today.
