These shows also help preserve the many centuries of Hungarian cultural values and hand them on to the next generation. In our rapidly changing world, there is little that is constant and unchanging but our collection of folk tales is an exception. Matthias Hunyadi, who in Hungarian folk tales is always referred to as “Matthias the Just” was crowned King of Hungary in 1458. 2008 is his 550th anniversary and this dance display is both an act of remembrance and an opportunity to awaken children’s attention to eternally valid universal truths like justice. Tales of King Matthias by the Budapest Dance Theatre will involve period costumes and sets, introducing youngsters into the world of King Matthias. The dance piece is not just a staging of the tale with dynamic and diverse choreography but also an evocation of Hungarian literature with the involvement of actors, which makes for an interesting and valuable resource for youngsters. During our journey through time, the message of the tale will steadily but imperceptibly embed itself in the souls of our youngsters.
