Avditorij Portorož presents the premiere of My Dad, the Socialist Kulak, the renowned bittersweet comedy by Tone Partljič, adapted for the stage and directed by Vito Taufer.
The play takes us back to the period following the Second World War, marked by agrarian reform, political upheavals and the conflict with Stalin. Serious historical events are portrayed through humour and the eyes of the “ordinary” person – the Malek family, who must find their way among party secretaries, authorities, farmers, teachers and other representatives of the time. At the heart of the story is Malek, who tries to find a way to provide for himself and his family amid political turmoil.
The cast includes Alojz Svete, Mojca Partljič, Gojmir Lešnjak – Gojc, Jure Ivanušič, Peter Harl, Sara Gorše and Romeo Grebenšek. The music was composed by Jure Ivanušič.
Visitors are invited to travel to the performance free of charge on the “subscription” bus connecting Koper, Izola, Lucija and Portorož. Advance registration is required.
