Szögi Csaba is a dancer, choreographer, dance educator, theater director. He was Novák’s assistant for 8 years. He has worked with the Bihári, Honvéd, the Vasas Dance Ensemble in Dunaújváros, and the Central European Dance Theatre. He is presently director of the Bethlen tér Theatre in Budapest. "Tata still comes to our premieres, he’ll invite us all to a glass of wine afterwards and brings real, constructive criticism…the real master course [for me] was the 8 years (1979-88) when I was his assistant. To an important degree I have him to thank for where I’ve gotten to today. And not just as a dancer, choreographer, but as a person as well."
