Irma Unušić (b. 1989) is a Croatian choreographer, performer, and founder of UO SHOOMA, an arts organisation dedicated to creating innovative contemporary dance theatre for children and young audiences. Her work explores interactive performance formats, participation, and the relationship between contemporary art and education.

Promjena polazi od iskustva adolescencije kao vremena u kojem se sve može promijeniti prije nego što stignemo razumjeti što se zapravo dogodilo. Tijelo, raspoloženja, odnosi i osjećaj pripadanja ne ostaju dugo na istom mjestu, a predstava tu nestabilnost ne pokušava smiriti, nego je pretvara u svoj izvedbeni princip. Glazba, pokret, tekst, kostim i svjetlo stalno mijenjaju funkciju, ritam i međusobni odnos, dok izvođačica prolazi kroz različita emocionalna stanja i približava ih publici. Promjena ne traži konačan odgovor na pitanje tko smo. Više je zanima kako živjeti s time da se odgovor stalno pomiče.
Predstava je okosnica šireg projekta UO SHOOMA koji suvremenom umjetnošću nastoji doprinijeti mentalnom zdravlju djece i mladih od 12 do 16 godina. Stvaranje predstave savjetuju psihologinje Hrabrog telefona, kao i Fokus grupa djece i mladih iz I. osnovne škole Bjelovar.

Change starts from the experience of adolescence as a time when everything can change before we can understand what actually happened. The body, moods, relationships and sense of belonging do not stay in the same place for long, and the play does not try to calm this instability, but turns it into its performance principle. Music, movement, text, costume and light constantly change function, rhythm and mutual relationship, while the performer goes through different emotional states and brings them closer to the audience. The change does not seek a final answer to the question of who we are. She is more interested in how to live with the fact that the answer is constantly shifting.
The play is the backbone of a wider project UO SHOOMA, which seeks to contribute to the mental health of children and young people aged 12 to 16 through contemporary art. The creation of the play was advised by psychologists from the Brave Phone, as well as the Focus Group of Children and Young People from the 1st Primary School in Bjelovar.
