Members of the group were expelled from Hungary in the early 1970s for their radical aesthetic views. After spending a year and working in Europe they moved to the U.S. in 1977. Their experimental theatre in New York became a well-known place in the city on West 23rd Street, near the Hotel Chelsea, between 7th and 8th Avenues. All three of their major plays: Pig!Child!Fire , Andy Warhol's Last Love , Mr. Dead & Mrs Free were staged in their storefront theatre, with the street as a backdrop and many times integral part of their plays. This staging became their trademark.
