Introduction

Founded in 1998. Vakrepülés is a Hungarian theatre group of blind actors. Since 2001 the group has experimented with theatre in the dark. „Touch of the Night” by Donáti István, which we first
performed on ”the Day of the White cane” (Day of the Blind, 15th October), is a play especially
written for a completely dark stage and blind actors. It is the aim of Vakrepülés to guide the
audience into using other senses than their vision, to experience the provocative and rich
information offered by sound, smell, touch and even taste. Our plays enable fully sighted people
to gain an insight into a blind person’s way of living and perception of reality.
