One of the most watched performances of the Bosnian National Theater in Zenica, "Three Days", which according to the text of the Czech author Roman Sikora directed Tanja Miletić Oručević, will be performed on May 12 in Bijelo Polje, on the stage of the "Vojislav Bulatović Strunjo" Cultural Center at 20 p.m.
They play in the play Nusmir Muharemović, Snežana Vidović, Zlatan Školjić, Siniša Vidović i Adem Smailhodžić. He signs the dramaturgy Nejma Chizmo, scenography and costume design Sabina Trnka, and music Husein Oručević.
Playwright Čizmo said that the author of the play Sikora determined the text as a black comedy genre, but the process of achieving a comic effect is quite complex, and humor was often used in order for the character, as well as the audience, to move away from the essentially difficult, realistic and the tragic fate of the main character.
"The story follows Mr. B., who, in a very short period of time, goes from being a successful banker to being homeless and dying on the street, alone, without anyone's help. Already in the introduction, the character tells us that he is dead, and in the sequel we follow the recapitulation of his 'successful' life", she said.
Director Miletić Oručević also notes that the dying of homeless people on the street in the center of Prague, with the complete indifference of the environment and the lack of any help, really happened, and that this is what gave the author the impulse to write this dramatic text.
The playwright points out that the goal is to make the audience less emotionally involved in the story itself, as well as more difficult to identify with the main character, but to make the audience truly wonder what the world is like from which the character comes, whose product he is, and what is the consequence of his fate.
The director announces that it is a "real dramatic treat".
"The main character and the narrator at the same time (an extremely demanding role played brilliantly by Nusmir Muharemović) Mr. B. is a huge admirer of capitalism. So passionate that even when he loses everything, his property and his banking career and ends up homeless under a bridge, he gives seminars to other homeless people about the basic pillars of capitalism. His faith in "homo fabera" and the market competition is so great that he begins to function like a crazy, naive person who is cheated by petty fraudsters. His final downfall - the situation in which he dies with a broken head and a broken leg for three days on the street in front of an indifferent society - is just the ultimate consequence of the market game in which he lost," said Miletić Oručević.
Tickets, at a price of three euros, can be purchased at the ticket office of the Cultural Center on May 9 and 10, from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m., and on the day of the performance from 19 p.m. to 20 p.m.
