ZAGREB, June 23 (Hina) - The private theatre Ulysses will this
summer, for the third consecutive year, perform plays from August
11 to 25 at the "Minor" fortress on the north Adriatic island of Mali
Brijun, a founder of the theatre, Rade Serbedzija, said at Monday's
news conference in Zagreb. #L#
The public will be able to see Shakespeare's "King Lear",
Euripides's "Medea" and Peter Weiss' "Marat-Sade", as well as
several other plays.
Serbedzija said he would try to involve Al Pacino in Ulysses, which
would "make another wish of the theatre come true -- to become an
international project".
The Ulysses theatre was opened with a humanitarian concert by
Vanessa Redgrave on the Brijuni islands on August 2, 2001.
The work of the theatre is closely connected with the Istria area
and its name is a dedication to James Joyce, a writer whose
biography and works show he had visited that area. Joyce worked as
an English professor in Berlitz's foreign language school in Pula
from November 1904 through April 1905.
