JERNEJ LORENCI INTERVIEW - DANAS DAILY JERNEJ LORENCI, SLOVENIAN THEATRE DIRECTOR Why do we like being either complete heroes or complete victims? Slovenian author Jernej Lorenci, one of the most renowned theatre directors in the region, is preparing his first Belgrade performance. By: Marija Krtinić Belgrade, 11th June, 2017 The Project Epika Balkanika , ' based on Serbian epic poetry, is a co-production of the National Theatre in Belgrade and Bitef Theatre and is scheduled to open at 51 st Bitef, The festival audience has already had a chance to see this author’s works - The Tempest, The Crazy Locomotive, The Iliad, some of which have been awarded at this festival. Lorenci is considered one of the most prolific Slovenian directors, and among more than 40 performances he has made so far C Antigone, Medea, Don Juan, Othello'), many are inspired by ancient stories and myths. One of the latest examples is The Bible he has recently staged at the Slovenian National Theatre. We have spoken with him about the myth and its impact on our understanding of the past and the present. Epika Balkanica is going to be the first performance you have directed in Belgrade. Could you tell us more about it - which works of Serbian epic poetry will it be based on and what will be your basic plotline? - The final selection will be made together with actors and associates. I would first like to hear how those texts sound, the interpretation they offer, the imagination they stir, the emotion they provoke. What I already do know for sure, however, are the topics I am interested in: beauty and strength of the (old) poetry, the relationship between the hero and the victim and what it is that makes us desire to be complete heroes or complete victims, and how thin the line between the two positions is, to which extent the past influences the present and why it can become (self-) murderous, the cruelty and love too, of course. It will be interesting by all means.
