Is there anyone who hasn’t heard the story of the cricket and the ant? The ant was busy working like a dog all year long, and by the time winter came around he had used up all his supplies. So he knocked on the cricket’s door to ask for a loan from him… or how does it go again?
Aesop, the world’s first storyteller, is finally coming to visit Hungary and he is going to tell us whatever stories he feels like telling! He’s a free man, you know. A freed slave. He had a hump, but was straight-backed. He had two legs, yet he would stumble. If necessary, he could be a sly fox; if not, a newborn lamb. Either way, he was top dog. A swallow who wasn’t one.

And by the end of the evening we will all be slightly freer slaves.
