Hollo designs new concept in interactive theatre spaces in Hungary

Hollo is to become co-creator of a new concept in Hungarian theatre staging. For the first time ever, a fully transportable 500 seat theatre space with full facilities, will be permanently staged in Hungary. The venue shell has been imported from Milan where it was created by a specialist in outdoor venues. Hollo will completely design the space which will house 500 fully adaptable / multi configurational seats, refreshment and toilet areas, backstage and technical facilities and a full intelligent lighting grid. The space will be used to house the premiere of Hungarian musical "Istvan á Király" (King Steven) and then for a multitude of theatrical events. Hollo also will market this new ingenious new space to his corporate clients with a view to staging corporate, private and cultural events of all kinds within the space. The venue is the brainchild of Békéscsaba Jokai Theatre boss, Peter Fekete. Check back here for future news and Hollo's exclusive mini-site about the project.
