The Mouse School Fairy Tale is heading to Belgium – heartfelt thanks for the support to Irena Joveva and Marjan Šarec!

With great joy, we announce that our dance performance The Mouse School Fairy Tale will be hosted in Belgium on December 4th and 5th! This magical story, which speaks to young audiences through dance and imagination, will come to life on an international stage for the very first time – thanks to the exceptional support of two Members of the European Parliament.

We sincerely thank Irena Joveva and Marjan Šarec, Members of the European Parliament, whose personal financial contribution has made it possible for our creativity to reach beyond Slovenia’s borders. Through this generous support, they have shown their belief in the power of art as a bridge between cultures and affirmed that Slovenian artistry deserves a place on the European stage.

Their support is not only financial – it is deeply symbolic. It represents trust in the work of Katja Dance Company and in the importance of art for children, families, and the broader community.

Irena Joveva – A Member of Parliament with Heart for People and Culture

Irena Joveva is known for her dedication to transparency, social justice, and support for youth. As a former journalist, she understands the power of storytelling – including the kind that unfolds on stage. In the European Parliament, she advocates for employment, human rights, and freedom of expression. Her support for our project is a testament to her belief in art as a tool for connection and inspiration.

Marjan Šarec – A Politician with an Artistic Soul

Marjan Šarec, a former actor, comedian, mayor, and prime minister, now serves as a Member of the European Parliament, representing Slovenia in Brussels with a clear and confident voice. His understanding of the arts stems from personal experience—he knows how vital culture is to a nation’s identity and to the development of each individual. His support for The Mouse Fairy Tale is a gesture of respect for creativity that speaks to the youngest and builds bridges between generations.

Our gratitude to Irena Joveva and Marjan Šarec is a thank-you for their trust, their support, and their understanding that art is not a privilege, but a right.

The international performance of The Mouse Fairy Tale, in collaboration with the Slovenian Association in Belgium, means more to Katja Dance Company than just a show—it’s a confirmation that dedication, heart, and artistic vision can resonate across Europe.

Thank you for believing in us. Thank you for helping us shine!
