REGISSEUR
THEATRE, OPERA AND TV DIRECTOR
I was born on October 19, 1968, in Zagreb, where I completed my primary and secondary education. I also attended the School of Classical Ballet and Rhythmics in Zagreb. I continued my education as a classical ballet dancer at the prestigious Moscow Academic Choreographic College (MAXY / Bolshoi theatre ). I completed a two-year postgraduate training in Moscow, but after a serious foot injury, I interrupted my career as a ballerina and returned to Croatia.
Later, I enrolled in Theatre Directing at the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Zagreb and earned a degree as a theatre director. I have been professionally involved in directing since my second year of study.
I have also been a long-time collaborator with the Croatian Radio Television (HRT) as a director of the dubbing of animated and live-action series, as well as a director of special projects. Since 1997, when I started working at HRT, I have directed more than 350 various animated and live-action series. I am also employed at HRT as a permanent associate stage director of special projects. As a stage director, I have directed the presentation of the Croatian Theatre Award four times. I have also directed the opening ceremony of the Pula Film Festival's 50th anniversary and the Croatian selection for the Eurovision Song Contest, DORA, three times.
From November 6, 2004, to August 17, 2006, I served as the director of the Istrian National Theatre (INK) in Pula. During my tenure, the theatre produced numerous plays with the biggest names in Croatian and regional theatre, and received awards at the Italian festival in Cividale and at the festival in Tivat, Montenegro.
From April 14, 2013, to February 11, 2014, I served as the director of the Opera at the Ivan pl. Zajc Croatian National Theatre in Rijeka. During my tenure as the Opera Director, many domestic and foreign distinguished opera singers and directors were engaged.
Many of the plays that I directed have been featured at international festivals and in Croatia. Some notable titles that I directed as a theatre director are:
