SNOW WHITE AND THE DWARF
“This is a sweet story about the loneliness within us, of which we are often unaware. The play is also about a prince who is inside each of us. We must look at the beauty within.” (Maja Lučić)
Snow White is sweet, sweeter than chocolate – hearing these words, the queen’s heart almost stopped. She thought about it for a bit, decided that she wanted to get rid of Snow White and said to her chef – “take her to the forest”. In the forest, a dwarf lives, Neven is his name. He lives by himself and makes up little rhymes.
Snow White, trembling like a flower, suddenly appears at his house, just like snow in the middle of summer, and tells him her story.
Did Neven help her? What happened next? Did the Wolf get Snow White?
Maybe she became a dwarf and lived in the forest with Neven.
Maybe Neven grew tall like a real prince and protected her.
You’ll find out at the show, bring your adults if you think they deserve to come.
JOZA IVAKIĆ CITY THEATRE IN VINKOVCI, REPUBLIC OF CROATIA
1917 is considered as the beginning of theatre tradition in Vinkovci, when the Dilettante Theatre performed two one-act plays. The theatre has been open continuously ever since, with a very short break during the Homeland War. Throughout all the years, the theatre has had its ups and downs, changed owners, held great and important performances by domestic and foreign authors, especially valuable classic works of Slavonian writers, and brought up actors responsible for the development of theatre in Vinkovci. The theatre went through different stages of development. The Vinkovci Theatre got a new official name: in 1971 it became the Joza Ivakić Theatre, and since 1998 it has been called the Joza Ivakić City Theatre in Vinkovci. Since 2002, the theatre once again has a professional production, and in 2007 it became a professional theatre, with the ambition of having its own ensemble.
