International Bi flamenco festival in Cankarjev dom

Flamenco as a genre or artistic genre and also as a way of being is still alive. Its creators are infinitely far from merely recreating ossified musical and dance forms covered with the dust of history. Flamenco is a current that is fueled by contemporary and related creativity, and at the same time it is an inspiration itself.

Thinning in the valley of Šentflorjanska in Cankarjev dom

On the 100th anniversary of Ivan Cankar's death, a large annual co-production in Cankarjev dom will stage his farce, which teaches us that nothing can ever change and that it is even possible to laugh at this realization. The arrival of the artist Peter upsets the 'chaste' Šentflorians; the blessed valley has nothing to do with cultivating artists and other practitioners. But when Peter plays on their bad conscience, they quickly fall to their knees, and even Zlodej gives up on them.
