Talking with writers
Maruša Krese presenting her last bilingual poetry collection Nenadoma se je stemnilo / Plötzlich wurde es dunkel (It suddenly grew dark), Popotniške pesmi / Reise Gedichte, translated by Daniela Kocmut and published by the Pavel house. Her work speaks of journeys; of travelling for the purpose of the journey itself, and sometimes for the purpose of reaching the destination, of journeys made to tell stories, but mostly to catch moments, situations and life. Debate accompanied by a projection of photos by Meta Krese, thematically linked to the collection.

Klarisa Jovanović and Della Segodba
Poetry-in-music
Klarisa Jovanović and Della Segodba concert is a presentation of their latest album Od ljubezni (From the love).

Cast:
Klarisa Jovanović (voice)
Vasko Atanasovski (soprano saxophone, flute, kazo, supporting vocals)
Žiga Golob (double bass, supporting vocals)
Luka Ropret (guitar, supporting vocals)

Same babe
Poetry-in-music
A band of a varied genre that bets on witty and insightful lyrics. Their repertoire is partly made up of musical interpretations of the poetry of Janez Menart, or occasionally other poets and even folk poems. The cast literally ‘furnishes’ the poems with music, so that the musical part is a sort of a mirror to the verbal part. Their performances are regularly spiced with a great dose of humor and resemble a performance.
Cast:
Marko Jelovšek (double bass, cymbals, vocals)
Marko Voljč (trumpet, ukulele, rhythm, vocals)
Miha Nemanič (organ, rhythm, vocals)
Viki Baba (guitar, accordion, screaming and shouting)

Children's program

Gledališče Bičikleta: Lutke za prstke (Bičikleta Theater: Puppets for fingers)
Children workshop
Bičikleta Theater, the smallest possible theater in terms of member number, shows to the children that if we just stop and play for a second, our hands and fingers can create a wondering sleepy star, a giant frog, a beautiful spring daisy or even a snouty little mouse.

Fairy tale reading with Alenka Cilenšek
Alenka Cilenšek is an actress performing in theaters, films, and television and radio productions. Her persuasive performance and voice take the children into the world of fairy tales at this year's festival.

Yoga Mavrica
is a creative, playful, fun, fairy tale, complete yoga program for children and parents. The children express themselves freely through the wondrous world of animals, and relax through fable- and story-telling, sound and animation. The parents work with their little ones interactively, and establish a fluid relationship with them in a very special yoga way. Activities led by Bernard Cvetko, yoga teacher.

Lutkovno gledališče Velenje: Frdamana pravljica (Velenje puppet theater: The darn fairy tale)
Puppet show
'Frdamana pravljica' or 'The story about how anyone can find true love', is a comical, musical fairy tale, teaching the children that you don't have to perfect to find true love. What matters is that you are a good and kind person, to yourself and to the people around you. That is what they will love you for. Just the way you are.
