When: Jan - Feb 2009
Where: Pag
The city of Pag on the northern Dalmatian island of the same name is the epicentre of the island’s winter carnival.
The principal act of the carnival involves a female slave character named Robinja (played by a man dressed as a woman) wearing a neckerchief, accompanied by two young boys, a salesman, a musician and many characters related to the time of Turkish rule. The participants proceed to form a crowd in front of the parish priest’s house or in the main square, and when the crowd is assembled, the performance starts.
The simple plot is based on selling the female slave, with opposing sides arguing and recounting past events. At the climax of the performance, the crowd begins to shrink and the female slave escapes.
