About the performance
Don Juan is one of those literary figures who has gone through the most adaptations. For the entire last season, Tomi Janežič and his team also took him as a reference point for their research and laboratory approach. Parallel to that, Simona Semenič was writing a new text, titled no title yet. Semenič approached Don Juan, this time carrying the quintessential Slovenian name Janez, from the angle of his "seducees" and through the consequences of his acts – which all blend into a whole in a single moment, in a single heartbeat. A moment needed that a body that slips from the bed hits the ground. The text has merged superbly with the material created at the rehearsals, and Janežič mixed it subtly into a rich, layered whole.
The performance is a theatre fantasy, and its contents also tackle the question of human fantasies. Its creators strive to be continuously conscious of the fact that the attitude towards death is an important element of the original myth of Don Juan, as is, consequently, the question how to live and survive. At times it seems that these two require a miracle.
