About Me
- Sanja Mitrovic
- Sanja Mitrovic is theatre director and performer born in Yugoslavia, based in Amsterdam. She is a founder and artistic director of Stand Up Tall Productions (2009). In 2010 Mitrovic was awarded the prestigious Dutch BNG Nieuwe Theatermakers Prijs for the best young director for her production “Will You Ever Be Happy Again?” which is touring Europe to critical acclaim since 2008 (selected among five best performances of the 2009/10 season by magazine TIN). Mitrović is interested in the notion of documentary in theatre and its relation to the social, political and cultural realities of our times. Her performances are structured around the idea of montage combining theatre, performance, dance and visual arts. As documentary material she often uses personal stories and testimonies which she contrasts with official historical accounts. The form resulting from such a combination she terms a “docu-tale”. Permeated with subtle humour and sharp analysis, her works are marked by an urgency to explore the influence of the collective processes as well as important political and social issues on the private lives.

I was never thinking about meaning of being Serbian, till I saw the title of your blog. Somehow, it makes a big impression of me, and I started to ask questions to myself in the same time - how can i be something for a while , and in next 40 hours I'll become something else, and both of my identities are determinated by some name that is written on a paper. It's kinda strange feeling, don't you think?
My thoughts are still spinning around, after this information... Really what is determinating me? Do I feel now as a Serbian? Not really. Do I feel like something else? Again - no. Do I have to feel as an Serbian, cause I was born as one? Looks like it's easier to liberate my own sexuality then nationality...
Oh I understand what is all about!
I have experienced being a Serbian, Croatian, American, Jewish, Armenian...
Still don't know why is it important?
There is no question about what you are, or want to be, but what others are making as thinking of what you are!
With me it is easy, they are always confused!
ROFL!
Love that! Kiss!
OMG, Gabi left her comment again. We should be afraid. And Sanja, you will always be our Audrey Hepburn.
:)
Is this a joke about becoming Dutch? Are we in some game? What is it all about?
