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.

Terror is currently the most staged work both on European stages and around the world, as it is shown in more than forty theaters, and in Germany, Switzerland and Austria, viewers could also watch a film based on the drama of the same name on their TV sets in September, and after the end of the film, they voted live on the pilot's guilt or innocence and thus decided on its outcome. The drama and its numerous productions experienced a real media boom due to the current terrorist theme, and its author became a media star. In Prešeren's theater in Kranj, you will be able to see the play for the first time on December 3 at 7:30 p.m., directed by Eduard Miler.
The comedy Man's Lair plays with many male-female stereotypes and reveals a humorous view of the relationship between men and women, this time from a male perspective.

The witty comedy about mutual relationships, consumerism and male friendship will be further enriched by many live musical hits. The premiere will take place on December 1 at 8:00 PM in SLG Celje. This time, Sandy Lopičić signed on to direct.
