Proper Mess
What happens when chaos and order meet? ProperMess is a playful exploration of the clash between these polar opposites, impersonated by Mr Proper and Miss Mess.
The result is a high energy and entertaining show that has no shortage of technique but is moved along by humour and most of all playfulness.

InThisTogether
We have recieved the EFFEA Grant for our latest creation InThisTogether, that enables us to go on residency to Slovenia, Czechia, Croatia and Serbia during the next year. The show will be accompanied by an audience discussion and a workshop for partner acrobatics and counterweighted aerial acrobatics.
This is an experiment. We have some intentions, but just like you we don’t exactly know what is going to happen. “InThisTogether” is a participatory circus show that relies on the audience in order to happen at all. If you choose to be involved, you will experience the trust, focus and joy that is so intrinsic to circus. And yes, you will share some of the risk and responsibility, too.

Forróváltás
Az új év a Trafó számára rendhagyó fordulópontot jelöl: búcsúzik két, az intézmény szempontjából rendkívül meghatározó személyiség, Barda Beáta, ügyvezető igazgató, és Szabó György, a Trafó alapítója. Tőlük a stafétát 2025. januártól Erdődi Katalin, a Trafó új igazgatója, és Böröcz Judit, programvezető veszik át. Az évindító-korszakzáró esemény keretében búcsúrevüvel ünnepeljük és köszönjük meg Beának és Gyurinak a sokéves, fáradhatatlan munkájukat, valamint bemutatkozik a Trafó csapatához csatlakozó Kati és Judit, akik egy performatív híradóval adnak betekintést a jövővel kapcsolatos terveikbe.
A társulatunk egy performatív akcióval készül az eseményre.

You are the Flow
Parkour, the urban extreme sport that is characterized by acrobatic and choreographed motions, can easily connect to performing art in the broadest sense, theatre or dance. And since the street is its natural medium, viewers are bound to get involved – perhaps even as participants. You are the Flow is a multidisciplinary production, as well as a jam, that relies on the viewer’s active participation.
