The premiere of the play “Forest Fairy Tale”, directed by Ena Osmanović, will be performed tomorrow on the stage of the Amateur Theatre Neretva. Through encounters, play, and song, this fairy-tale story leads the audience into the magical world of the forest, conveying messages of friendship, togetherness, and nature conservation.

The idea for the play was born during theatre workshops, inspired by children’s imagination, as a blend of two classic fairy tales – Little Red Riding Hood and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The forest, as a shared motif of both stories, became the meeting place of well-known characters and the foundation for a new, unique stage adventure.

Although rooted in the original fairy tales, “Forest Fairy Tale” introduces certain fresh elements, retaining recognizable characters while offering a contemporary approach and innovative stage solutions. The performance features 33 children from the Children’s Stage of AP Neretva, who bring to life as many as 50 different characters, making this production both special and dynamic.

In addition to play, song, and stage movement, the performance carries strong messages intended for both children and adults – messages of friendship, togetherness, environmental awareness, and love for theatre.

In the realization of the project, alongside director Ena Osmanović and the young performers, Amina Gakić and Almir Alić also participated, enhancing the magic with music and lighting effects.

The premiere of “Forest Fairy Tale” will take place on Friday, January 30, starting at 7:00 PM, on the AP Neretva stage. Tickets are priced at 4 KM, the performance lasts approximately 45 minutes, and it is intended for the whole family.
