15 Desiré Central Station Desiré Central Station is a regional and international modern theatre festival organised by the Dezső Kosztolányi Theatre. It presents progressive, in its artistic expression and content innovative art. It shows Subotica and the festival programme in the contexts of their European identity, without putting aside the stereotyped fact that it happens right on the border line between the Balkans and Europe, in a multi-ethnic environment. Since the Dezső Kosztolányi Theatre is a Hungarian-language theatre, in selecting the productions, special attention is devoted to the ones coming from Hungary. 15 The festival was named after the artistic nickname of Dezső Kosztolányi who was one of the most exciting, most European representative of the 20th century Hungarian literature. Desiré Central Station is a new, central, cultural platform, where the centre is not the capital city. It has the aim to grow into a regional centre of contemporary arts and theatre, and last but not least, it flirts with the state s cultural decentralisation principle.

44 44 Desiré Central Station Desiré Central Station je regionalni i međunarodni festival savremene drame Pozorišta «Deže Kostolanji» iz Subotice, a prezentuje u progresivnom, umetničkom i sadržajnom smislu inovativnu i naprednu umetnost. Suboticu i dati program prezentuje u obliku svog evropskog identiteta, ne gubeći iz vida činjenicu koja je već postala fraza, da se nalazi tačno na granici, odnosno predstavlja kapiju između Balkana i Evrope, i da njeni stanovnici žive u multietničkom okruženju. Pošto je Pozorište «Deže Kostolanji» ustanova kulture mađarske manjine, u pogledu izbora gostujućih predstava posebnu pažnju posvećuje produkcijama iz Mađarske. Festival je naziv dobio po pseudonimu jednog od najuzbudljivijeg i najevropskijeg predstavnika mađarske književnosti 20. veka, Dežea Kostolanjija. Centralna stanica «Desiré» je jedna nova centralna kulturna platforma, gde centar ne egzistira u relaciji glavnog grada. Ono želi postati reagionalni centar savremene pozorišne umetnosti, i koketira sa idejom kulturalne decentralizacije naše zemlje. Više informacija na: Kontakt: (00381)
