Sári O. Horváth

Sári O. Horváth, born in the Balaton region, is one of the most important new voices in Hungarian theater as an author, playwright and director. Her studies (dramaturgical writing, directing) at the University of Arts Târgu-Mures, Romania, brought her into close contact with the traditional Hungarian and Romanian styles and means of theater making. Sári O. Horváth’s handling of structures, her unconventional choice of themes and her unconventional, multi-layered characters quickly made her a playwright who attracted attention. Prizes followed. Her play “Life Positive” was nominated for the “Best Play of the Season” award in Hungary. Sári O. Horváth’s work has been shown in Hungary, Serbia and Romania.
