Uncertainty in the Šentflorjan Valley is without a doubt a work that, regardless of how many times it has been performed on the stage of Slovenian theaters, always makes us laugh and at the same time makes us laugh with its critical message. Even in 2014, Slovenian svetohlinstvo is no different from the year 1907, when Ivan Cankar wrote his famous farce.

I Fear Slovenia is the latest performance by dancers Leja Jurišić and Petra Veber as part of At.Šiška! – of the Austrian-Slovenian focus on contemporary performing arts, which will take place from December 4 to 8 in the Ljubljana urban culture center Kino Šiška.
The Špas theater and two language ladies, Ana Marija Mitić and Katarina Čas, will ensure that this year's happy December will be truly happy and that 2014 will pass with laughter, with the comedy KO KO KOMEDIJA, which will take place on stages all over Slovenia. The two friends, smeared with all the "frogs", may look quite different at first glance, but in reality they are much more alike than we think.
Until March 1, 2015, Ljubljana will be a magnet for all lovers of surrealist art. More than two hundred works by Salvador Dali, an artist whose name, together with his oeuvre, has become almost synonymous with the art of surrealism, are exhibited at the Gospodarski raštavišče.
This year too, the Ljubljana and Maribor Opera Houses are taking care of our festive experience in December. December will be spent in pleasant music and dance performances of The Nutcracker, The Bat, The Barber of Seville, Romeo and Juliet and Carmen.
The Prague Burlesque performance revives an almost forgotten type of stage art that flourished in the first half of the twentieth century. With the help of sensual dance, breathtaking costumes, comedic elements and exotic scenography, it takes the audience to the fantasy world of erotica.

On March 3, the ballet ensemble Malandain from Biarritz will host the dance performance Cinderella (Cendrillon) in Cankarjev dom, which will take us to the world of princes and cobblers with a mixture of modern choreography by the outstanding Thierry Malandain and classical music by Sergei Prokofiev.
