Plavo theatre has come up to another performance following the principles of feeling of responsibility. After more than ten years of life under authoritarian politic regime, we felt the obligation, as theatrical critics of reality, creating our comment, to point the end of the period that brought us so many sorrows. We decided that our comment takes a form of contemporary musical, a form of celebration, because the end has finally come.’

Nenad Colic, 2001
