„Working with a director who has come from another culture and uses another language is always a challenge: it requires extra efforts on everyone’s part, which in turn can lead to professional growth and new experiences. While rehearsing with Şerban, the ensemble got acquainted with a completely different theatrical language in a mutually open exchange of inspirations – this spirit of curiosity and openness therefore is not only thematised by the productions we play at Radnóti, but also the atmosphere which our Richard III with Andrei Şerban was made in. At Radnóti, we consider it important to be present on the international scene, and not only has this meeting with Andrei Şerban made us more open on a professional and personal level, but also helped us enter the international discourse of what theatre is and what it can be.” (Adél Kováts, general director, Radnóti Theatre, Budapest, Hungary)
