SPARKS: Alen Prošić: Antichrist
Four years after Lars von Trier’s controversial film Antichrist, a theatre staging inspired by the film will be presented by hybridTheatre.

Društvo študentov invalidov Slovenije, Plesni klub Zebra: WHEELZARD (wheelchair dancing)
Just another day with people running their everyday errands. Carefree and easy-going are their lives, and their abilities unlimited. But out of a sudden the land is covered with a demolishing whirl that embraces the unfortunate dwellers and blows away their strongest force of life – the ability of aesthetic movement and expression. Where to go from here? (more…)
Bojana Šaljić Podešva: I SEE AND I HEAR THE UNIVERSE
The concert consists of three sentences, corresponding to three visual artistic works put into music. The three works represent our understanding of the universe through three separate periods, three different visual mediums and three completely different approaches: realistic, naïve and abstract, with a roguish tone present in all three of them.

Maja Delak: SHAME
Lights, performers’ bodies, a TV screen, the walls in space become projection screens for a gaze to rest upon, desires and thoughts of a spectator. Shame is a complex, integral and independent staging. It may dig up a memory or two and tenderly subject a person to re-questioning. It doesn’t provoke, it simply just touches you. (more…)
Beton Ltd.: EVERYTHING WE’VE LOST, WHILE WE’VE GONE ON LIVING
The performance titled Everything We’ve Lost While We’ve Gone on Living emanates from the absurd as portrayed by the current time and as developed by the French playwright of Romanian descent, Eugene Ionesco, in his work The Killer [fr. Tuer sans gages]. By going back to the perception of reality as an increasingly fictive and imaginary landscape, a contemplative posture towards our own selves is invoked, about what we are like and about the constantly changing circumstances that surround us.

Leja Jurišić, Teja Reba: THE SECOND FREEDOM
“In The Second Freedom the authors paste together some motives from their previous solo and co-authored pieces and then develop them in an experimental manner, without obsessing excessively about the exact dramaturgical limits of the performance. In this diversity of roles, images and transformations the potential for reflection and self-reflection arises and we see it run smoothly during the performance itself. (more…)
Bitnamuun: EXIT BY FORCE/EN_TRANCE OF STRENGTH
“How to eat with open mouth?”
“Is the door the backside of space?”
“Is it possible to find safety in the space of Fear?”
Experimental performance of the movement collective Bitnamuun explores spaces in between. It is interested in spaces and states “in the midst of”. More precisely, it is interested in the ethics of movement between outside and inside, between one and the other side of the border, between the ceiling and the floor, between a “yes” and a “no”.

Fičo Balet: PARODOS
“Parodos – the arrival of the antique urban choir on stage. What can be so important that the audience simply must see it, hear it and experience it?” (Goran Bogdanovski) (more…)
Kviss búmm bang: GALA – Celebration of Minorities
Slovenian Railways, the Glass hall, entrace from Pražakova street
The Icelandic collective Kviss búmm bang stages what could be defined as documentary and participatory theatre, since their projects are normally produced in the city they’re being hosted in. The ironic approach they use in their work often allows the spectator to see things from another perspective. Their work GALA – Celebration of Minorities, which was created under the framework of the European project Global City – Local City, tackles the issue of minorities in the broadest sense of the term.
