After the festival success in Budapest, a world sensation: the artistic duo of Olivér Buti and András Jagudits won the silver prize at the world’s strongest contemporary circus competition with their fantastic springboard performance.
This year, for the 43rd time, the Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain is a competition for artistic productions that innovate the classic circus genre with their originality, originality, theatricality and choreography. The festival is a world leader in its category, and to be included as a competitor is a great honour. That is why it was a great honour for the young Hungarian duo to be invited to the Budapest International Circus Festival: they were the reason why the finished competition programme was rearranged, because their performance was of such a high quality that the Paris organisers did not want to miss it!
The Pal’s Compagnie duo members, Oliver Buti and András Jagudits, studied for seven and five years respectively at the Imre Baross Artist Training School in Budapest, where they became lovers of Korean deska. Their goal was to get better every day and show that it is possible to dream big. The duo, who successfully graduated from the Artists’ Training School last year, created a humorous production based on absolute confidence, with Tibor Kőmíves as their professional master and Roland Csonka as their choreographer. Their first major competition was the Dnipro Youth Circus Festival where they won a gold medal and a special prize.
Two weeks ago, at the 15th Budapest International Circus Festival, they won four awards: in addition to the Hungarian Supertalents gold medal, they received special prizes from Cirque du Soleil, Nikulin Circus and Starlight Production & Showbusiness.
Their teachers are Tibor Kőmíves and Roland Csonka, who accompanied them to the Paris competition. Tibor Kőmíves won the Paris Cirque du Demain 35 years ago, in 1989, as a member of the Trio Mazotti, and now he is sharing his students’ success. The success of last year’s graduates of the Baross Imre Artist Training Institute’s Academy of Performing Arts (BIAK) is a success for Hungarian circus arts and for the education of young people.
On behalf of the Budapest Big Circus and the Artist Training School, we offer our heartfelt congratulations: Péter Fekete Director General.
