Apply by phone 2 639 639 or e-mail bitef.polifonija@gmail.com The production is about the consonance of the East-West differences, the openness of the Renaissance in England and the self-isolation of Japan (origins of Kabuki), the consonance of the Old and the New Testament, meeting of spirit and matter, man and puppet, woman and man, and man with himself. The theatre presentation resembles the simulation of particle collisions in a nuclear reactor. With due respect for the basic characteristics of these consonances, we tell a story about Us. Ever since its beginnings more than eighty years ago Branko Krsmanovic AcademicTheatre has belonged to the avant garde, turning to new writers and modern theatre expression; its best members have become professional actors, directors, writers, set and costume designers... The Academic Theatre is a place were university students form the foundation of the creative, organisational and performing team and a singular example of a students'repertory theatre.
