Entertainment - Kotor, Kotor Municipality, Montenegro
Exactly at noon, on February 12th way back in 1993, in town of Kotor, the meeting was held. And not just any kind of meeting, but a very special and interesting one. That meeting brought together a group of same minded people, theatre enthusiasts among which were Vladimir Grubanov, Živomir Joković, Milan Karadžić, Stevan Koprivica, Slobodan Marković, Vanja Popović, Ljubivoje Ršumović, Branislav Milićević, Voja Soldatović i Stevan Bošnjak as idea creators and initiators of this meeting. Besides the President of the Municipality of Kotor Assembly, Vidosava Kašćelan, the Minister of Culture of Montenegro, Ilija Lakšić and town officials attended the meeting. Two month later, on April 14th, in Belgrade, it was decided that the Festival will be held in July, and the Assembly of Municipality of Kotor made the decision about founding Yugoslav Festival of Theatre for Children.Although it was named Yugoslav Festival of Theatre for Children, the initiators had hoped even before the first festival took place, that the festival will soon become an international event.The first festival was officially opened by Vidosava Kašćelan, on Saturday, July 3rd, 1993 on the Square of Arms with a ceremony named Kotor fairy-tale. And from that day on, there is no end to Kotor fairy-tale.Year after year, the festival has grown as some mischievous freckled child from Kotor, every time more cheerful, colourful and imaginative, but always as a child in its heart. In its eleventh year, the Festival decided to change itself a little bit. On Friday, March 12th 2004, the former Yugoslav Festival of Theatre for Children received a new name - Kotor Festival of Theatre for Chidren, named after the town in which it was created.
