The Rise of Fall

I've completed my seasonal Thereminiad videobook-promotion/theremin concert series. Now comes Kosher Cabaret, a new, non theatrical series with Yehuda Loew Social Club. As a prelude to the series I created The Jew, a videobook, which will be first shown on November 30, 2008, at the Siraly club, in Budapest, Hungary. It is great to work with the other two founding members of YLSC, Emőke Kiss-Végh and Tamás Ördög. They are students of the Kaposvar University, where I gave a week long course on living theatre last January. They study acting, but both are fed up with the kind of theatre which is accepted and supported in Hungary. The idea of working together with me came from them. They are helping me a great deal in organizing the Kosher Cabaret series, and even more importantly by giving me energy and inspiration. As the economical crisis deepens in Hungary too I find it harder and harder to get work. Even if I manage to get a commission and deliver on it I often don't get paid for my work. I owe two months rent and the bills keep on piling up on my desk. Anyway, while browsing the Net I came across G.I.N.A.'s great site, where I've find Johnny Cash's beautiful remake of the Nine Inch Nails song, 'Hurt'.
