Another year that will be marked by the most wonderful summer festival in Europe, and certainly more widely still. Traditionally, from July 1 - 12, Kotor Festival of Theatre for children brings together all the theater viewers and connoisseurs, both big and small, and takes them to an unforgettable adventure through the town of Kotor.
This year, our mission is to, besides Kotor, Europe, world, universe, conquer the Moon, with our imagination, and on this trip, we are joined by artists from Spain - Karla Kracht & Andrés Beladiez, and their show 2062. Their participation in our program is supported by a grant provided by AC/E, Acción Cultural Española - Programme for the Internationalisation of Spanish Culture (PICE).
2062 is a multi-disciplinary show encompassing and interweaving scenic, multimedia, comic, illustration, and animation techniques, as well as shadow and object theatre, aimed at creating a scenic and cinematographic live show. With these ingredients, a dystopian world is created, a world in which we encounter borders, walls, new migrations, and the latest geopolitical and economic changes. The world will never be the same again... Borders will turn red again or disappear completely. They will become less accessible. New walls will be built and old ideals will be buried. Wars will be different, but killing at ideologist gunpoint will continue. Capitalism, facing virtually no opposition, will extend to the whole terrestrial world. Governments will concede their power to large corporations. New migrations will antagonize Europe, which will try to preserve its hegemony. Citizens will be searching for their identities in shopping carts. The 21st century has arrived and changed us forever, but we have hardly realized it. Somehow, everything continues to be the same.
The authors and performing team are Karla Kracht and Andrés Beladiez, famous for their multimedia approach to theatre art.
2062 will be performed on Saturday, July 6 at 9 p.m. in Nikola Đurković Cultural Centre in Kotor. The show is 55 minutes long and recommended for children over age of 12 and all those interested in dystopian, cinematographic, multimedia masterpieces.
