SCANDAL IN ST. FLORIAN VALLEY
As a tectonic cataclysm, the scandal, woven out of the bright colours of life, passion, love, and challenges, brings to the surface people’s self-centred egotism, lies, double morality, and greed – all that is so carefully hidden under the cloak of innocence and honesty.
The exceptional young dancers of the Balkan Dance Project will perform Cankar's Burlesque.
BDP dancers aim to build bridges between the people of the Balkan region. They are connected through the same traditional roots, religion, history, and art.

WHY AREN’T YOU HERE
(Inspired by the beauty of sevdalinka)
Sevdalinka is a unique national musical expression of Bosnia and Herzegovina, intensely intertwined with the spirit of melancholy.
The combination of the traditional and the modern has enabled choreographer Igor Kirov to express himself and his choreographic poetry.
