Elvis is alive!

Elvis lives, strangely enough in Slovenia, today, 3 November 2025, in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung/FAZ:
About the programme ‘KUD Mesarija Elvis’ in the ‘Culture and Arts Department of Elvis Butchers Shop’ by the actor Renato Jenček from Celje; about the stage character in his solo comedy, his role models Elvis Presley and Oskar Trobec, and the power of parody and music: ‘A tragicomedy about people in the 21st century, designed to entertain, provoke thought and make people laugh. Even about ourselves, when the masks come off.’ Elvis is alive!
