Co-produced by the Ulysses Theatre and MESS festival of Sarajevo and first performed on 15 August 2015 on the Island of Brijuni, the play Antigone – 2000 years later will be performed on Monday and Tuesday, 15 and 16 August at 9:30 PM in Komolac, on the site of a former warehouse at the Ogarići street.

This play is a theatrical exploration of an ancient mythical story written by Sophocles, in which he described the distressful period of the birth of the European civilization and victory over barbarism. Certainly acclaimed name in this great ensemble is Rade Šerbedžija in the role of Creon. Theater critic Nataša Govedić wrote that “Šerbedžija in each stage of performance retains the severity we have not seen for decades on local stages, perhaps since the great tragic rolls of Fabian Šovagović. (…) Antigone directed by Lenka Udovički affects tragic center not only Sophocles pieces, but also the post-Yugoslav war trauma – almost every house where was the house of the king’s loss, as well as the house in which everybody knew well their neighbourhood executioners”. She added that this is the play of very strong performative value as well as the most integral piece by Lenka Udovički’s team so far.

Croatian premiere of Richard III produced by Almeida Theatre was held on Brijuni on Thursday, August 11!

Vanessa Redgrave, Ralph Fiennes, director Rupert Goold, Ulysses’ artistic director Lenka Udovički and founder Rade Šerbedžija, together with production manager Duško Ljuština, presented the guest performance of Richard III from Almeida Theatre on Brijuni!
