JOAKIMINTERFEST 2006


1st International Small Scene Theatre Festival

1. Međunarodni pozorišni festival malih scena


There are hard distinctions
betwen what is real and what is unreal,
not betwen what is true and what is false.
A thing is not necessarly either true or false;
it can be both true and false.
Harold Pinter, 1958.

Awards

1. Award for the best play
2. Award for the best director
3. Two awards for the best actors
4. Award for the visual effects
5. Special Award
6. Audience Award


1. The play GALEFYRSTEN from the Small Theatre Dusko Radovic from Belgrade won the award for the best play at the First JoakimInterFest. The director Marc Van der Velden and his actors Goran Jevtic and Ivan Tomic succeded in overcoming the theatre language and told the story for all the times in which we participate. The opening toward the world and the isolation from the rest of the world are just the causes, where the team of the play GALEFYRSTEN found the instruments to describe its own life with and without lies and without the help of video tapes. The international jury thanks for the participating in this kind of performance.

2. NEBOJSA BRADIC, famous director of the Serbian theatre scene, won the award for the best directing at the first Joakim InterFest in Kragujevac 2006 for the play One small death trilogy of Elfrida Jelinek, performed by the Belgrade Dramma Theatre. Nebojsa Bradic opened the door of theatre workshop which should stay open for all the time of this festival duration, which will be lasting for the centuries, at least the jury hopes so.

3. The original thought of the jury was to award only two best actors, but our international jury found the solution to choose four. This was our decision: the award for the best actress went to the young, expressive and gifted actress AJDA TOMAN, starring in Ljubezen, dolga tri dni in tri noci from the Gledalisce Glej Theatre, Ljubljana. The male part of the jury was fond of idea that the world of stage belongs to the young actresses with capabilities similar to Ajda's. These capabilities are the following: expression, beauty, truth and transformation. The female part of the jury had to agree with this argumentation!
Three war friends in the play THE CARETAKER of Harold Pinter, National Theatre from Kikinda share the award for best actor of the First JoakimInterFest. Three best friends, three actors of the only play written by the Harold Pinter, which is not boring, according to Mr. Mardock, a British in our jury, will share honour, but also the money, at least we hope so, in an inn. Well done!!!

4. For the visual effects we decided to award the particulary beauty of the second act of the play Le ultime lune by Massimo Luconi who we used to call Luca Ronconi. This basil in the play Le ultime lune of the Theatre Joakim Vujic discovered romantic kids in us in the visual and spiritual way. We look like a serious world, but believe us, we are such romantics!!!

5. And at the end, with the greatest pleasure, as a president of this international jury, without any influence by severe but fairly Carla del Ponte, i acclaim that the special award at the First JoakimInterFest in Kragujevac goes to the Direction of the festival for the huge work in the organizing of the festival, for the dreams they had to, willing or not, dream with us, puppies. Special thanks to Mr. Dragan Jakovljevic who became a shadow while we were toasting to each other. That is a difficult role.

So, we would like to congratulate to the DIRECTION OF THE JOAKIMFEST on its openess to the world, but we notice, I guess patriotic, that the best plays were from Serbia. What is completely in the spirit of Serbian customs! It does not mean that the next year will not be different! However, the selector has to choose plays for the main program and those for the following. His InterJoakimFest jury asks him to do it!!! Jury composed by Dragana Boskovic (the president of the jury, theatrologist), Snezana Kovacevic (costimografy), Pierre Walter Politz (director), John Murdoch
(play writer) made all the decisions with one accord. Explanation of the special jury of the First JoakimInterFest 2006 Dragana Boskovic (the president of the jury, theatrologist), Snezana Kovacevic (costimografy), Pierre Walter Politz (director), John Murdoch (play writer).

6. The award of the audience

The audience chose the play of Serbian National Theatre from Novi Sad, GRETA, STR. 89 of Luc Hibner, directed by Boris Lijesevic for the best play at JoakimInterFest 2006 with average mark 9.75.



Summery
SMALL BUT BIG



JoakimInterFest, First International Small Scene Theatre Festival was held in Kragujevac at Theater Joakim Vujic, First in Serbian Court Theater, from October 7th to 14th, 2006. During the Festival 13 performances from 6 countries were presented (England, Romania, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro and Serbia) and the jury decided that the best play was Galefyrsten performed by Little Theater Dusko Radovic from Belgrade, produced by Marc van der Valden.

JoakimInterFest has natural, link with Joakim and JoakimFest, but it is something new, wider, the same-but different! Small, but big. Small forms that go far, said the Director of the Kragujevac Theater and the Director of JoakimFest, Dragana Jakovljevic, at the opening of the Festival.

Vice Mayor of the Kragujevac City, Sasa Milenic, noticed: Over the long years of isolation we became eager of the world and experiences of the difference. Kragujevac Theaterpolis by being familiar with the achievements of the other environments actually enriches itself and searches its identity; her further assessed this very ambitious international exchange of theater gests and signs, cherished deep in the interior of Serbia.

International Jury of the JoakimInterFest awarded for the best production Serbian well-known theater artist and producer Nebojsa Bradic for the play of Elfrida Jelinek One Small Death Trilogy; best players awarded are Ajda Toman, Slovenia and the theater band (collective award) of Pinters play The Caretaker from Kikinda; Last Phases play performed by Kragujevac Theater was awarded for the visual effects.

The audience proclaimed for the best play of the First JoakimInterFest Greta page 89 of Serbian National Theater from Nivi Sad. The exhibition of theater photographs was held during the International Small Scene Theatre Festival, too.
