Mission and Objectives

Merlin is an open cultural institution that believes that the notion “culture” cannot be reduced to merely theater, dance, fine arts or music. Other areas of our lives must also be included, and what determines us the most: the world around us. Strictly speaking the social realities of Budapest, Hungary and on a larger scale, Europe.

Main Projects / Activities

– Organising cross-border cultural cooperations
– Participating in and organising international coproductions
– Receiving Hungarian and foreign guest performances
– Creating English language performances
– Organising workshops for theatre people and young playwrights
– Supporting alternative theatre initiatives from Hungary and abroad
