New Year's Eve performances 2016 - New Year's Eve in the theater:

Anna Karenina

Jovanović's stage adaptation of Tolstoy's famous novel Anna Karenina from 1878 largely preserves the complex novelistic story, but nevertheless creates a drama on stage that sounds extremely modern. The story of a great uncontrollable love that collides with many external as well as some internal obstacles is a story about an individual and a society in which there is no place for those who do not follow the rules. The love that bursts into the life of the refined noblewoman, wife and mother of Anna Karenina, is too big for society and its double standards, for its rigid (even unwritten) laws, for its narrow-mindedness and unforgiveness.

After many years, Zvone Šedlbauer, a renowned Slovenian director, who, in addition to directing in all Slovenian theaters, has also devoted part of his career to the art of opera, has signed on to direct.

Turandot

Puccini's last opera, Turandot (1924), which remained unfinished due to the composer's untimely death, with its comprehensive aesthetics represents the end and the last true peak of the period of the great Italian opera tradition of bel canto.

Their psychotherapist gives them a whole series of different psychological exercises to improve communication, but after the first hesitant steps, they start blaming each other.
