The performance will be followed by a conversation with Kati Marton.

Adapted from the powerful memoir by Kati Marton—a Peabody Award-winning author of ten books, including Chancellor: The Remarkable Odyssey of Angela Merkel—the piece draws on a rich tradition of personal and political storytelling.

This one-woman show stars acclaimed Hungarian actress Erika Marozsán, and was adapted especially for her by the award-winning Mohácsi brothers and directed by János Mohácsi.

Set in post-war Hungary, Enemies of the People follows Kati as she uncovers the untold story of her parents, Ilona and Endre—journalists and survivors of two oppressive regimes. As a decade of buried memories resurfaces, Kati’s reflections reveal a portrait of heartbreak, love, fear, and the quiet strength it took to endure and resist in a world turned upside down.

With just one voice, a mesmerizing score composed and performed by Marton Kovacs and Adam Moser, and a powerful story, Enemies of the People captures the complexity of personal freedom in a time of authoritarian rule—and reminds us not to wait for tragedy to recognize the people we love. This intimate performance invites us to reflect on resilience, sacrifice, and the enduring strength found in human connection.

Presented in English, this performance is intended for mature audiences. Run-time 60 minutes.
