Barbara Udovičić performed her project 'Barbara Unplugged' at the Satiričko kazalište (Satirical Theatre) in Zagreb, where the venue was sold out. The performance lasted around 70 minutes, with the Zagreb audience listening in near silence.
The 'Barbara Unplugged' project is not a standard stage play, stand-up, or literary evening, but rather a live storytelling experience. During the performance, Udovičić spoke about personal experiences, relationships, losses, illnesses, fears, and life turning points.
The Zagreb performance followed a previous show in Kastav, where the project also attracted significant public interest. Following two sold-out performances, 'Barbara Unplugged' continues its tour to other cities in the region, with new locations and dates to be announced soon.
Following the Zagreb performance, Udovičić stated: 'After Kastav, I thought I knew what to expect, but Zagreb completely caught me off guard. It is incredible to stand before a full theatre and feel how many people are experiencing each sentence alongside you.' She added that she is increasingly noticing the audience finding parts of their own lives in her stories.
Udovičić had previously gathered a large audience on social media, with the first three print runs of her book 'Bedra puna riže' selling out within days. The Zagreb premiere was attended by Iva Radić, Iva Todorić, Lejla Filipović, Željka and Aleksandra Stanković, and Mario Battifiaca.
