Szidi Rákosi

She was relatively unknown towards the beginning of her career, but found fame in grandmotherly and comedic roles.

In 1892, Rákosi was part of an actor-led training school, which educated generations of Hungarian actors for the stage.

On 8 February 1895, she provided an application to the Budapest City Council for a civic theatre.

The plot of land needed to build the theater was bought by her brother and her sister's husband, Lajos Evva [hu].

Her children and students helped support Rákosi in Budapest until she died at age 83.
