67th Sterijino Pozorje Festival Selector’s Report

OFFICIAL SELCTION OF 67. STERIJINO POZORJE FESTIVAL

THE TIMES OF ANXIETY

The Sterijino Pozorje Festival is not, it has never been, nor will it ever be, a cross selection, or an average look at the theatre spirit or the state of theaters in Serbia. This manifestation was – or at least this is how most theatre professionals see it – the vision of vitality, capacity, and potential of theatric values reflected through the production of domestic dramas.

The most important achievement of the Sterijino Pozorje Festival is the fact that it describes the model of the world we live in today and determines the dramatic expression of that model, and then values theatric production following that model.

“ Dokle se god budemo samo hvalili, slabosti i pogreške prikrivali, u povesnici učili koliko je ko od predaka naših junačkih glava odrubio, a ne i gde je s puta sišao, donde ćemo hramati i ni za dlaku nećemo biti bolji.“

Jovan Sterija Popović
