11. Madách International Theatre Meeting

Where to? is a humanitarian drama that highlights one of today’s most pressing issues that we choose to ignore: illegal migration. Hundreds of thousands of refugees die around the world - they are the homeless, who are looking for refuge in foreign countries, because they do not have the basic rights necessary to live in their home countries. The play relates the story of a group of refugees with an uncertain fate who are travelling towards a better life in a truck-trailer. Will they find a safe haven? If the world is not the privilege of the few, how can we explain the ruthless attitudes of many countries, or the mutual consensus on which these attitudes seem to be based, the attitudes that prevail in countries form which people are forced to flee and the prevailing attitudes in states that do not want to receive these hundreds of thousands of people who have become outlaws? By creating this play, the makers of “Where to?” want to awaken people from indifference.
