The End of the World in Three Acts is based on the texts of three contemporary authors – Kristina Kegljen Under the Coat, Katja Gorečan Activists and Tijana Grumić The World Deserves to End – who are characterised by a strong feminist and authorial approach to the issue of violence against women in a time of pandemic. A contemporary dramatic omnibus, where resistance and women's revenge emerge as key common themes that become the guiding thread of the entire work, and through them the power of women's experience from the age of the primeval world to the present, from the universal to the narrowly theatrical, is shown, reminding us that with the current values, the end of the world has long since come.
