Liliom

In the darkness of the big city parking garage, a beam of light falls on two silhouettes clinging to each other. "Good evening, it’s the police!" The two figures flinch, staring uncomfortably into the spotlight.

"It has to be accounted for. It doesn't end so easily. Let's take it one step at a time. Slowly, point by point. We have questions. But we also have time. We'll get to it. As long as one is remembered by someone, there's a lot to be settled."

In 1909, Ferenc Molnár set the story of Liliom in his own time. The creators of the new performance of the Örkény Theatre imagine the images of Liliom and Juli's love in line with the author's original intentions, also in their own present, in a contemporary environment. Molnár's timeless themes collide with the problems, desires, and traumas of 21st century people.
