BETONTANC and UMKA.LV: SHOW YOUR FACE!

»This is a performance about a man without a face. It is based on a 20th century study of Latvian and Slovene history, of disappeared people, of people without names, passports or identities. This is a puppet performance, a musical, a concert, a mini opera, a cartoon and a movie, if you like.« Matjaž Pograjc
The performance is a Slovene-Latvian co-production and was chosen for the competitive programme of this year’s Borštnik Meeting in Maribor. Before that it will be performed in Ljubljana.
