Slovenia: Alenka Gotar in Beauty and the Beast

Alenka Gotar, who represented Slovenia in the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest, is currently involved in an ambitious joint project together with popular Slovene impressionist Jure Godler. The project is a musical adaptation of the classic tale of the Beauty and the Beast and it is already a success with Slovene audiences.

Alenka Gotar and Jure Godler share a common sense of humour as well as a great love for music and Mozart. They first performed together the theme song of Beauty and the Beast during the Miss Slovenia 2007 pageant and afterwards decided to join forces to produce a version of the classic fairy tale for all audiences.

The show features a mixture of Jure's legendary imitations ((Milka, George Bush, Blair, Elvis, Dubravka Tomšič, Mr. Bean, Figaro, etc) and music, with Alenka singing arias as well as performing parts of the play. So far, Alenka and Jure's Beauty and the Beast of music and laughter has been warmly received by audiences receiving standing ovations. During the 90 minute show, Alenka Gotar and Jure Godler give their best with the audience rolling down the aisles in laughter. The leading actors admit that they often find themselves on the verge of laughter as well.

Great to hear about this musical where Jure and Alenka have leading roles. Alenka as an amazing singer and Jure Godler who is a genious considering his musical, humoristic and impersonating skils, this can be something worth seeing.

nop for me Greece was my 4th favourite after malta romania and latvia.....as a spectacular show on stage , you cannot compare that of romania with greece...romania was far than better!

Greece shouldn't have won in 2005 but as nearly every year happens in eurovision and as eurovision, nowadays has become a joke/farce, the best song Never and never wins!

This is just my opinion

Yes it happens too with other countries, but this is a post about Slovenia :)

By the way, I prefered Israel and Greece more than Malta in 2005.

hellena was great, song was perfect....MY NUMBER ONE is one of most great eurovision songs.
Malta only had to won in 2002 and thats all.

GREECE was definitly the best in 2005!
