An Evening with Mila Kačič is a presentation of selected poems from hercollection, Skoz pomladni dež bom šla (Through the Spring Rain I’ll Walk) and a monument to spiritual affinity, the power of love and loyalty amongfriends. The sensitive susceptibility and intuition of Barbara Pia Jenič, the director, followed Mila Kačič through the eyes and heart of IvankaMežan: Ivanka’s memories, feelings, experiences, conflicts, pain, defeatsand despair. Each poem is a story reflected in the interpretative approachof the great actresses of Slovenian theatre. During the performance Mila’s spirit can be felt, dancing around the auditorium and whirling in the vastness of universal time and space - between life and death, in thetimeless reality granted by the power of words.
