In fact, it is so customary that theatrical scenery is in the theater, and not elsewhere. Unless they are so good that they can be displayed in museums as examples of contemporary art. But a group of Hungarian artists ignored these traditional set ideas and installed theatrical sets. in the park of the royal palace in the Hungarian city of Gerelle. This installation got the name Scenario - Baroque Space Installations.
On the pages of the site Kulturologia.ru we saw a lot of all kinds of theatrical scenery! We saw a truly magical set on the floating opera stage in Bregenz, we saw a set at the auditorium itself in Miami. But to be honest, I never saw theatrical scenery in the park!
And they, nevertheless, were created by a duet of Hungarian artists David Remsey and Zoltan Turney. Moreover, the installation "Scenario - Baroque Space Installations" was created not at all in order to then arrange some theatrical performances in this park of the royal palace. It is complete in itself.
Installation "Scenario - Baroque Space Installations" consists of ten rag panels measuring 1.2 meters by 2.5 meters. These panels hang in the middle of a small grove of fir trees, creating a special cultural and semantic space inside it.
Sami David Ramsey and Zoltan Tourney argue that this is a space where the world of dreams, the world of stereotypes, magical images, fantastic plots and mythological creatures operate. On the panels you can see many allegories and symbols characteristic of the Baroque culture - snakes, birds, magical transformations and rebirths, twelve zodiac signs, as well as carnival masks. A person, getting inside this space, should get into the world of fairy tales, into the world of his dreams. But it will be easy to get out of this world by taking a step to the side and leaving this spruce grove.
And although the installation "Scenario - Baroque Space Installations" was not originally conceived as a set for real theatrical performances, some Hungarian directors have already asked its creators to let them in, to provide these sets and this place for their theatrical experiments.

Socotra is a Yemeni-owned island located in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia. It is one of the most isolated islands of continental (non-volcanic) origin. Many millions of years ago, it broke away from the mainland, and this event preserved the unique nature of the island. Its flora and fauna turned out to be, as it were, "conserved" from any external influence. The island does not look like a fragment of the earth's land, but like a fragment of another planet. Everything seen there often does not resemble at all
How Broadway became theatrical and has retained its prestigious status for 300 years
Leaving Hollywood for Broadway, if not forever and even for a short time, is a common practice for actors. And the New York theater itself boasts a brilliant and rather long history. For almost three centuries, the process of evolution of shows on Broadway has been going on: once operas were superseded by operettas, vaudeville, variety shows, musicals appeared, old plays were rethought and new ones received recognition. Even the appearance of cinema did not deprive Broadway of the status of the center of cultural life in New York, but it affected the rapper
