ZMAJ/THE DRAGON, Kazalište mladih, Novi Sad (Srbija)

Drama Zmaj sovjetskog pisca Jevgenija Ljvoviča Švarca napisana je 1943. u obliku bajke za odrasle, ali s jasnim alegorijskim podtekstom o diktaturi. Radnja je smještena u izmišljeni grad kojim stoljećima vlada okrutni, troglavi zmaj. Stoga se naslov srbijanskog prijevoda drame odnosi i na ovo mitološko biće i na nemilosrdnog vladara - a u priči susrećemo i zmaja u ljudskom obliku, budući da ima moć pretvaranja u ljude. Švarc je dramu napisao imajući na umu alegoriju nacizma - i doista, drakonski režim iz ove bajke ima određene elemente Hitlerove ideologije.

The play The Dragon by the Soviet writer Evgeny Lvovich Schwartz was written in 1943 in the form of a fairy tale for adults, but with a clear allegorical subtext about dictatorship. The story is set in an imaginary city ruled for centuries by a cruel, three-headed dragon. The Serbian title of the play therefore refers both to this mythological creature and to the ruthless ruler – in the story we also encounter the dragon in its human form, as he possesses the power to transform into people. Schwartz wrote the play as an allegory of Nazism, and indeed the draconian regime in this fairy tale contains certain elements of Hitler’s ideology.
