The piano legend Ivo Pogorelich held a recital last night, 18 August, in the Rector’s Palace atrium. Pogorelich’s performance at the anniversary 70th Dubrovnik Summer Festival has long been sold out and all its high expectations were met, surpassed even, in the almost two hours of magical music which the Festival audiences enjoyed last evening.

The ingenious Ivana Buljan Legati performed the Room For A View monodrama last night, 17 August, on the stunning Bokar fort. Based on the Virginia Woolf short story The New Dress and directed by Marina Petković Liker, the monodrama Room For A View sheds light on our inner insecurities which are deepened by societal pressure.
