Taking its title from a line by Anja Golob — “And let my world cry itself out in dance!” — the performance is the final production of the Dance Academy, which delights critics and audiences alike every year. This year it brought together students of all three years of the Dance Academy from different dance fields, together with graduates who presented excerpts from their graduation performances as part of the gala evening. The well-known Slovenian rapper Rok Terkaj appeared as a special guest. The Academy’s students set themselves the challenge of setting his music to their own choreography, giving Terkaj’s musical talent a new stage guise.
