The Pocket’s Vaudeville “Matilda, Let’s Do It!” –an original production of the Pocket Teater (sic) Studio that will have it’s premiere run on the 6th, 7th and 8th of December – is a multilingual show (mainly English, but sprinkled, with Slovene, Serbo-Croat and Spanish) that follows the tradition of the old Vaudeville, Varieté and the acts that would appear American and Latin-American travelling fairs. It will present spectacles ranging from the shaky circus numbers, “freak shows” to slapstick comedy, along with music, dance, low budget beauty, on-stage magic and brimming enthusiasm with one single idea – to entertain the audience.
If most cabaret and burlesque shows in Ljubljana are put on as if they aimed to be created and premiered in today’s Berlin – always trying to provoke or scare the long-disappeared bourgeoisie – Pocket’s Vaudeville’s natural environment would be a train car with a run-down troupe of international artists travelling through forgotten towns of last century’s or present-day Bolivia, simply trying to make the bumpy road of life a little smoother for a brief moment.
Note that the Pocket Teater - tucked away in a courtyard by Le Petit Cafe - lives up to it’s name and reservations are required.
