RS9 Studio VII. 9 Rumbach Sebestyén

The RS9 Theatre functions in the form of non-profit Association in the district. It has opened in 1990 partially from own resources and partially with a support of the Soros Foundation. The first premiere was in 1990 with a play by Gombrowicz, that was later awarded in Poland with the prize for the best direction on the festival of “Polish Theatre Works” and we also were given the “Critic’s Choice” award of the Guardian on the Edinburgh Festival. We got several invitations from abroad. Yearly 100-140 performances take place in the theatre receiving 70 people at one time. 
 
Synagogue Tours
Do you know how many kinds of the building of a synagogue can be? How can a synagogue be turned to a casino and a Jewish church into a Christian one? If not, then discover with us the history of 22 synagogues in Budapest, look into their cultural heritage and communities full of surprising stories.
 
In the frames of the Synagogue Tours program we go around the Budapest synagogue within a year, and discuss the buildings and the life of the communities belonging to them. During the Quarter6 Quarter7 festival we will visit two synagogues of the 7th district – the Kazinczy Synagogue and the Rumbach synagogue, in organization of Kidma.
