DORA or Who’s Going To Stitch the Vests - Andreja Kargačin - Vienna Festival 2026 | sold out!

Doroteja Antić, called Dora, and the young theatre maker Andreja Kargačin have been friends since they were children. Now one of them is living in exile and the other does not know what is expecting her in Belgrade after the premiere of this play. The Serbian student protests began in November 2024. They were triggered when a newly renovated station roof collapsed in Novi Sad on 1 November 2024, killing 16 people; the negligent and overpriced renovation is one of a series of corruption scandals associated with the ruling Serbian Progress Party. Since 2024, the protests have evolved into a wider civil society movement and the government has reacted with arrests and accusations of terrorism. DORA or Who\'s Going To Stitch the Vests is based on the two friends’ intimate letters and leads us into a world of police brutality, female rage, patriotism and the question of a liveable future – in a country that censors art and criminalises activism.
