I HAVE NOT STOPPED SINCE MORNING Duration: 90 min

The play "I haven't stopped since morning" by the successful playwright and writer Una Vizek, the first prize winner in the Marin Držić competition for 2017, was premiered in March 2019 at the Kerempuh Satirical Theater, directed by Nana Šojlev.

Una Vizek talks about gender issues, but with an important content turn – stereotyped male and female gender roles turn in a witty, absurd and unconventional way, while the established clichés about the dynamics of male-female relations are subject to satirical sharpness.

In an atmosphere of female domination and male submissiveness, nameless men, reduced to numbers, revolve in closed, cyclical dialogues and situations within a relaxed atypical male socializing where they question their position in intimate relationships and on a wider social level, while longing for change and affirmation.

Playing with prejudices and social expectations, I have not stopped since the morning. Une Vizek touches on undeniably current gender issues with a drinkable and unpretentious expression.

The play I haven't stopped since morning 23.9.2020. at 8 p.m. Buy a ticket HERE .
