Tekst «Edip u Korintu» Ive Svetine, jednog od najplodnijih slovenskih pjesnika i dramatičara, čitatelju potiče poetsku vrotglavicu estetikom svog, pomalo zatvorenog, jezika. Edipovo prokletstvo odavno je napustilo kazališnu dramu i scenu i uvuklo se u svačiju podsvijest i time odrastanje uz priču o Edipu zauvijek obilježilo trokut Otac – Sin – Majka. Ivica Buljan svojim je standardnim dramaturškim i redateljskim pristupom gotovo špalirskog izlaganja svega na sceni, pred publikom razgolitio tekst i stvorio potentno kazališno iskustvo koje ne prešućuje queer izraz, već njime ponosno maše i pokazuje ga.
A, zapravo je smiješno da se priča o Edipu tek sada nalazi u programu našeg festivala, koji gotovo empirijski zna da je točno ono što je, priča se, Buljan, jednom rekao: «Svaka te majka, koliko god dobra bila, jednom sjebe!»

The play «Oedipus in Corinth» by one of the most well known Slovenian poets and playwrights, Ivo Svetina, initiates a poetic vertigo to the readers (and theatre audience!) by its high aesthetics. The curse of Oedipus has long ago left the stage and crept into everyone's sub- consciousness marking forever the triangle Father – Son – Mother. Director Ivica Buljan uses his standard tools of lining up all (f)actors on stage at the same time to grasp the text and tone it down in order to create a forceful theatre experience which uses queer expressions with pride and potency.
And, as for the Queer Zagreb festival goes, it is a little bit funny that a story of Oedipus finds its place in our program only now, in our fifth year, even though we empirically know what Buljan once said (or so people believe): «Each mother, no matter how good she may be, fucks you up!»
