what we're about

Showtivator Arts Management Agency is an independent performing arts management company based in Hungary, founded by project manager Albin Bálint. It was established with the aim of assisting and supporting various organisations in creating their new performing arts projects, program series and festivals.

Every successful performing arts project is supported by a reliable management team that performs strategic, planning, budgetary, administrative, customer relations and other operational tasks. However, not all organizations are able to employ cultural organisers, and even if such a position exists within the organisation, it may be necessary to expand resources on an ad hoc basis for a brand new project. This is where Showtivator's professional team comes in, reliably bringing even unprecedented performing arts projects to success.

After nearly twenty years, this is still what motivates me in every new project.”

As a cultural manager, director and production professional, Albin Bálint has spent nearly two decades delivering theatre productions, festivals and cultural projects. His expertise combines artistic processes, production management and organisational planning, guiding projects from concept development to successful delivery.

Engaging a team of external experts on a temporary basis is often far more cost-effective than sustaining a full in-house project team long term. Our clients achieve high-quality results – without the overhead.
