Playwriting Of Small Languages

About the event

One important novelty at the Week of Slovenian Drama is an exploratory meeting to develop a project on the theme of Playwriting of Small Languages. Key participants from similar small linguistic regions will create strategies based on our common challenges to promote, exchange, support and develop local playwriting. The project is being developed at the European Theatre Convention, of which the Prešeren Theatre Kranj is a member.

The meeting participants will discuss the questions concerning creating and staging drama, and particularly translating it and staging outside its linguistic borders. To encourage exchange and cross-pollination, representatives from Serbia, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Ukraine, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Malta, Greece, Basque Country and elsewhere will participate in the debate.
