Fun Fact
Stegnar/Jordan/Bezjak/Kangro/Ulfsak/ Epner/Kanuti Gildi SAAL
And the next question is: in what year happened? How many were there? Did anyone survived or nobody did? Human being is a creature asking question. We wanna ask. And sometimes we want to give also the right answers. But only sometimes. Fun Fact is celebration of knowledge and logical thinking. We are sailing on the ocean of facts, blowing wind into the sails of deduction and avoiding the rocks of being mistaken. Before there’s no more time the right answer must be found. Five. Four. Three. Two. One. The time is up! Up!
Fun Fact is created by one the most known names in Slovenian theatre Katarina Stegnar and Primož Bezjak plus Estonian team Mart Kangro, Juhan Ulfsak and Eero Epner. Instead of concentrating on the common past of two countries the question is being asked what is it, that unites us in the first place.
Katarina Stegnar and Primož Bezjak are among the most known actors of the last decades in Slovenia. They have worked in very different genres from dance theatre to classical theatre. Together with Branko Jordan they created the group Beton Ltd (2010), which has toured around Europe.
Mart Kangro, Juhan Ulfsak and Eero Epner are theatre makers with different backgrounds. So far they have done two productions together: Workshop (2019) and It Stays As It Is (2021).
