THEATRE SHOW

DOG DAY AFTERNOON

BY PETAR CVIRN

& DORA RUZDJAK PODOLSKI

`Dog Day Afternoon` is a one-actor play performed by Petar Cvirn, who embodies multiple dimensions of the mind and body. It tells the story of a man who, due to a series of unfortunate circumstances, finds himself on a deserted island that represents both literal and metaphysical place. `Dog Day Afternoon` is a non-classical dramatic performance.

This project marks the reunion and collaboration of director Dora Ruždjak Podolski/ Head of the oldest European summer art festival-Dubrovačke ljetne igre and actor Petar Cvirn after more than ten years.

The need of both authors to create a new theatrical, authentic language and world for this story organically arose after dozens of established projects in their previous work. They now seek a new approach to staging a story.
