Mini puppet show that wants to be the biggest there is

Mi gran obra is what I would do if I had an unlimited budget, the largest theatre in the world, 300 actors on stage, a military orchestra, a rock band, animals, cars and a helicopter. My Great Work is a utopia. The reality in which I create is characterized by precariousness and lack of means, and this precisely has always been the focus of My Great Work.

In Mi gran obra we are staging a large-scale show, sparing no expense, developing all the ideas, using all the material and working with an unlimited artistic team. All this with a slight drawback: a scale. Thinking big but doing small. The result is a show playing with different non-conventional narratives. It is a portrait of the society in which we live. It contains metaphors that each viewer can interpret in their own way.

Awards:
Best Golden Laurel Wreath for Best Actor/Actress (ex aequo), Golden Laurel Wreath of the Audience, and Festival Critics Team Award for Best Performance at Mess Festival, Sarajevo, 2014. Home Prize at BeFestival, 2014.

The second performance is followed by a chat (on both days).

The performance takes place in cooperation with the Summer Puppet Pier (Maribor Puppet Theater).
