The Amateur Stage at Pécs was a direct offspring of the Literaray Stage managed by drama historian and teacher Tamács Bécsy. Between 1969 and 1973 the group was led by pedagogue Szilárd Sződy at the Doktor Sándor Culture House in Pécs. In 1973 the group got a new leader, László Bagossy, who spent the years between 1969 and 1973 at a village called Mágocs, where he was not only manager of the cultural centre, but also initiator and director of the Literary Stage at Mágocs. His prodctions won numerous prizes at amateur theatre festivals with both groups. Later amaterur collectives at Pécs in the 1980s, such as the University Theatre and the Summer Theatre, were also connected to the above mentioned persons.
