On Saturday, March 7th, the comedy 'Slippers' by Mire Gavran premiered at the Small Hall of Lisinski, showcasing the talents of actors Kristina Krepela, Vedran Komerički, and Jakov Gavran. The play, directed by Mladena Gavran, offers an engaging exploration of interpersonal relationships, forgiveness, and the complexities of living together under one roof.

Set in contemporary times, 'Slippers' revolves around a middle-aged woman living with her second husband, who faces an unexpected visit from her first husband, recently released from prison for a crime he did not commit. With no place to go, he seeks refuge with his former wife and her current partner, leading to an unusual cohabitation scenario. The comedy reveals the ensuing chaos as suppressed emotions, jealousy, and rivalry surface, resulting in a series of comical situations that spiral out of control.

Through humor and a touch of human warmth, the play delves into themes of relationships and the boundaries that can be challenging to navigate. The premiere not only highlights Gavran’s writing but also connects to the broader context of the GavranFest held in Prague, celebrating his work across five countries, thus marking an important moment in Croatian culture and its theatrical landscape.
