About

The ballet of the National Theatre of Belgrade brings to life the iconic film "Who is Singing?". It will be presented in the choreographic interpretation of Staša Zurovac. The performance combines tragicomedy, philosophy, and folk rhythms of the Balkans. Audiences can expect laughter, pain, and a sense of impending change. The ballet performance "Who is Singing?" of the National Theatre of Belgrade transfers to the stage a story known to millions of viewers from the cult film by Slobodan Šijan. Based on the screenplay by Dušan Kovačević and the music of Voislav Voki Koštić, a work was born where modern choreography and Balkan color unite in an amazing stage act. At the heart of the plot are the events of April 1941. On the last day before the German invasion of Yugoslavia, a group of random passengers boards an old bus and heads to Belgrade. The journey is full of comedic situations intertwined with shades of tragic foreboding. In the finale, the characters face a bombing that turns the humorous into drama. This contrast makes the performance deeply symbolic - in it, every movement becomes a gesture of farewell and hope. Choreographer Staša Zurovac carefully combined the classics of ballet, elements of folk dance, and a modern language of movement. As a result, the audience receives a performance that sounds like a hymn of memory, yet breathes irony and lightness at the same time. Music plays an important role, organically intertwined with movement, enhancing the emotional impact and helping to create the atmosphere of pre-war Yugoslavia. The project holds special significance for the National Theatre of Belgrade. This is the first ballet in the modern history of the theatre, staged as part of the prestigious international festival BITEF. The performance has received national awards and critical acclaim, becoming a bright page in the cultural life of Serbia. Where to go with children in Moscow can be found on KudaGo.
