The psychological drama Gola, which creates a universe in a dimension that is not realistic, premiered on Saturday.
"If we believe the popular saying that everything is allowed in love, then we also allow exploitation, possessiveness, extortion, competition - all in the name of love. We allow and do everything just to not be alone. Because solitude is disgusting," that's what they wrote in the introduction to the presentation of the play, in which an unconventional love couple find themselves in one room: 25-year-old Lev and 22-year-old Patricija. Although he hides his years, he always needs reassurances, there is a deep emptiness, fear of loneliness, loss, pain. To her constant questions, Lev replies that he loves her, that the age difference is not important.
It is a text by a young Macedonian author Victoria Rangelova. She commissioned the show Tamara Doneva, he directed it Alen Jelen, and Jernej Gašperin and Nataša Barbara Gračner introduce themselves as Patricija and Lev. "Nataša Barbara Gračner was the first name that appeared to director Alen Jeln and dramaturg Špela Kravogel when reading the theater text in question. Her charisma, grace and professionalism made her the one and only Patricia in this space and time,'' they wrote in the City Theater of Ljubljana, and Jerne Gašperin, who is the youngest addition to the ensemble of the City Theater of Ljubljana, was placed next to her.
Naked it is also very special from this point of view, since it is a baptism Nataša Barbara Gračner in City Theater of Ljubljana and baptism Jernej Gašperin in a big role.
