"The performance "Gifts
of our Ancestors", that is inspired by the "magical
world in the work of Momcilo Nastasijevic", virtuously synthesizes
"contemporary theatrical expression with the roots of our
cultural exeptionallity" and successfully goes on. By filling
up the "real" space with movement, sound, color, darkness
and light, making the theater a sacred place where every object
is a treasured factor of a reality that can't be taken away, the
making real of the surroundings that are THEATER, the midst of
Nastasijevic's un-Reality is opened, and with it the depths of
the Dark "vilajet".

("Knjizevna rec", September 1992)
"In the performance of DAH TEATAR
there is a need of a meeting with the magically colored mysticism
of Nastasijevic and the contemporary theater expression that is
based on the learning of different acting techniques. The performance
"The Gifts of our Ancestors" does not have a fixed textual
base, it lies on a sort of libretto in which a spectator may recognize
the characteristics of certain characters from Nastasijevic's
prose, or relations that exist between them.
And in this kind of a theater that insists on differing the theatrical
conventions. Their dedication to their work is freed of the often
seen acting formulas.
