DAH Theatre from Belgrade and
Artpolis–Center for Art and Community from Pristina, will collaborate to create a theater performance with artists from Kosovo and Serbia. The theater performance TROJANKE–REPLIKA, co-directed by Zana Hodža and Dijana Milošević, is based
on Euripides’ tragedy THE TROJAN WOMEN. The performance is a process consisting of a combination of workshops, rehearsals, presentations, and community dialogues. The collaboration of artists from Serbia and Kosovo is a dialogue of peace, love, and solidarity that
can serve as a guide for new generations in the field of art and culture.

Euripides’ The Trojan Women is a tragedy over 2500 years old. Its themes – war, violence against women and children, displacement, genocide – are still relevant worldwide. The Trojan Women are therefore, unfortunately, a very contemporary
piece. The horror that was described in ancient Greece, we see today in many parts of the world, and Serbia and Kosovo have gone through that painful experience in their recent history. Therefore, in the project, we are looking for an answer to the archetypal situation that
repeats itself, and which we want to change – accepting the inevitability that women suffer and are victims throughout history. What are the ways of that change? What are the possible different reactions of women, rejecting that circle, rebellion?

The joint work takes place in Belgrade in September, in Pristina in November 2023, and foresees public presentations of the work in both cities.
