Ljubljana Darling !

Ljubljana Darling!


The true “Universal Theatre” experience.

Slovenia upholds its traditions and culture; strongly and passionately. This has helped Slovenia forge its own unique cultural identity. From music to architecture examples of Slovenia’s proud heritage can be seen on every corner of Ljubljana. The theatre scene of Ljubljana is no different.

The Slovenian National Theater is called DRAMA. It has two stages; a main stage and a studio stage. Drama can be found on one of the largest roads in the centre Slovenska cesta so it is easily located. The National’s season so far for 2009 has been an array of world theatre giants from Shakespeare to Beckett to the more unknown but never the less impressive plays of Milena Markovi? and Slovenia’s very own new talent Andreja Kopa?. Most evening performances can be found on both stages usually starting at 7:30 on the main stage and 8:00 in the studio, but do check performance times before attending. An evening spent at DRAMA competes with any night in the West-End.

Glej can be described as the Royal Court of Slovenia. To say it is the place you will find some of the newest, most experimental, and authentic Slovenian theatre in Ljubljana. With its own new playwright program, an audience member is given a unique insight into the Slovenian mindset of today. Glej also works with international partners to bring experimental theatre from around the world. Glej is a relatively small theatre and as such it has one stage, but with a full program for November advertised there is sure to be a jewel to be found. Glej can be difficult to find however having found DRAMA cross the main road Slovenska cesta heading south find the first road on the left called Gregorcieva Ulica and on this road is Glej. Glej is worthy of this search.

Now one for the children! Slovenian puppetry has long been part of Slovenian tradition. Putting a ‘Punch & Judy’ show to shame is the world renowned Ljubljana Puppet Theatre. The puppet theatre can be found on the same square as the lift to the castle.  The square is called Krekov. The main theater is often visited by tourist passing to the castle for its clock which strikes the hour with a musical clock that figurines appear from. Although this is a nice attraction – a venture into the theatre itself reveals some of Europe’s most impressive and influential puppet performances. Combining traditional puppet performances and contemporary works I am sure adults and children alike will be entranced by the magical art form often over looked by American and British theatre. The Ljubljana Puppet theatre has four venues, so there is always a wide choice of shows and also houses a puppet Museum. A must day out for a family in Ljubljana.

One must be aware before going to see any show that most productions are in the Slovene language. This can be a unique opportunity I believe to experience perhaps what Peter Brook was trying to achieve in his ‘universal theatre’. I myself don’t speak Slovene and yet can not get enough of this type of experience. When watching theatre in a strange language one is forced to look at other elements within the play to find meaning. This can result in a unique exploration of the plays theme but also the results can be revealing of ones self: the true purpose of drama.

However if theatre performed in a different language concerns you then why not search out the latest production from B.E.S.T. However B.E.S.T is a small company and productions can be thin on the ground at times.  To find out of current try their website www.bestheatre.com. B.E.S.T also offers corporate and private Murder mystery nights, which is a relatively rare style of entertainment in Slovenia
