IMPRÓ – creativity filling station hosts dunaPart club and the professional programme. IMPRÓ is a newly opened cultural centre in the heart of the city. The Momentán Company has renovated the ground floor and basement of a turn-of-the-century building transforming it into an improvisational theatre. By opening IMPRÓ, the company’s primary aim was to create the headquarters of improv in Hungary. Their goal is to establish a venue in Budapest dedicated mostly to improvisational performances where people can experience and enjoy boundless creativity.

Besides being the home of performances, adult and children’s courses and workshops held by the Momentán Company, IMPRÓ will also host companies who deal with improvisation or improvisational techniques in their work. The organisation and hosting of professional meetings, workshops and other creative programs also form part of future plans.
