The upcoming 23rd season of the Ulysses Theatre is dedicated to Ukrainian artists, and the premiere title in co-production with Sarajevo War Theatre SARTR will be Shakespeare’s play Othello, directed by Ukrainian director Oksana Dmitriieva. The creative team includes Ukrainian creatives, scenographer and costume designer Mykhayl Nikolyev, composer Kateryna Palachova and choreographer Inna Falkova. The title role is played by Ermin Bravo, an actor who joined the Ulysses ensemble a few seasons ago in the role of Haemon in the play Antigone – 2000 years later.<\/p>\n
The importance of the collaboration of Ulysses and Ukrainian artists with the Sarajevo War Theatre SARTR is reflected in the fact that this theatre was created and survived in wartime conditions, fighting for justice, peace and freedom. SARTR, as a theatre founded during the period of siege, is testimony to the phenomenon of spiritual resistance to aggression. SARTR not only preserves the memory of that period, but even today strives to strongly affirm universal values: the richness of diversity, the sanctity of peace, activism, internationalisation, compassion for all those who suffer injustices around the world.<\/p>\n
At the end of February, the first activities of the project were held, where the author’s team together with the producers from Ulysses visited Sarajevo and the SARTR theatre. Workshops were held with the actors,\u00a0 scenography and costumes were discussed as having an important role in the play, and puppetry elements from the Ukrainian theatre tradition will be used.<\/p>\n
Rehearsals have just started in Sarajevo, and at the beginning of July the project team will move to Brijuni, where final preparations will begin for the premiere, which will take place on July 22, followed by 5 more shows (see schedule at www.ulysses.hr).<\/p>\n
