SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Novo Mesto Summer Evenings festival\, Goga Publishing House invites you to Oma and the Spruce\, Thousands of Years\, a storytelling and music performance for adults\, taking place on Tuesday\, 21 July 2026\, at 8.00 pm. \nOMA AND THE SPRUCE\, THOUSANDS OF YEARS; NATAŠA KRAMBERGER IN SAMO KUTIN  / STORYTELLING AND MUSIC PERFORMANCE\nWhen Oma opened her eyes that morning\, she realised she would not be able to get up. Her forehead strained upwards\, while her body remained as motionless as a log. Somewhere between her head and her tail\, a dreadful short circuit had occurred. \n“Oh\, my dear soul\,” sighed Oma. “Life is difficult enough as it is—but when there are two beings inside your own body\, each pulling in a different direction…” \nThat was the moment Oma met the spruce. \nFor six and a half thousand years\, the spruce lay motionless—like a log—in the wet earth until Jani Kutin and Gorazd Kutin discovered it in Čadrg. They dried the ancient wood and transformed it into lyres\, flutes\, a violin\, an aeolian harp and a drum. \nWriter and storyteller Nataša Kramberger and multi-instrumentalist Samo Kutin bring to life the story of two beings made from the same substance—time itself\, singing. \nThe performance will take place at the festival venue in the Main Square\, in front of Goga Bookshop. \nEvent website \nNOVO MESTO SUMMER EVENINGS\nThroughout July and August\, Novo Mesto welcomes some of Slovenia’s leading writers\, poets and musicians. Alongside literature\, the festival also explores wider social issues. With Novo Mesto Summer Evenings\, Goga brings a vibrant programme of cultural events to the town. Every book\, every conversation with authors\, is a celebration of Slovenian literature\, the written word and the power of ideas. \nFESTIVAL PROGRAMME 2026\n\nWednesday\, 9 July 2026\, 8.00 pm – Kitchen of the Poor\nMonday\, 14 July 2026\, 8.00 pm – Prešeren\, Censorship and the Turbulent Nineteenth Century\nWednesday\, 16 July 2026\, 8.00 pm – Between Crime Fiction\, Music and Comics\nWednesday\, 16 July 2026\, 9.00 pm – Vlado Kreslin (concert)\nFriday\, 18 July 2026\, 10.00 am – Absolutely Nothing (puppet performance for children)\nTuesday\, 21 July 2026\, 8.00 pm – Oma and the Spruce\, Thousands of Years\nWednesday\, 23 July 2026\, 8.00 pm – Life? or Theatre?\nFriday\, 25 July 2026\, 10.00 am – The Magical Birthday (puppet performance for children)\nWednesday\, 30 July 2026\, 8.00 pm – Enlightened Novo Mesto\nSaturday\, 1 August 2026\, 9.00 pm – Ana Pupedan (concert)\nFriday\, 8 August 2026\, 10.00 am – Mirror\, Mirror (puppet performance for children)\nTuesday\, 11 August 2026\, 8.00 pm – Contemporary Slovenian Science Fiction\nMonday\, 17 August 2026\, 8.00 pm – Loveliness\nWednesday\, 19 August 2026\, 8.00 pm – Contemporary World Poetry\nThursday\, 20 August 2026\, 8.00 pm – Winter in Sokč\nSaturday\, 22 August 2026\, 10.00 am – Goldilocks and the Three Bears (puppet performance for children)\n\nFestival website
