Drama Director Ana Radivojevic Zdravkovic took this play into consideration out of all the season 2021/2022 drama repertoire plans and decided it should shortly be prepared for performance. In her opinion this play is a real theatre, the autobiographical story, the project taking place with this small and selected team, exactly when the whole planet is in trouble, and when environmentally aware young people put their and their child's life to the test.
