The ensemble of the Slovensko mladinsko gledališče (Mladinsko Theatre) is aware how difficult it is to follow theatre productions that are not performed in the mother tongue. From 7 to 10 March 2024 four of their high-profile theatre productions will be performed with English surtitles projected above the stage.
Of all the Slovenian theatres, the Mladinsko Theatre is the one that most frequently tours other countries. In four days, they will stage intensive theatre experiences, and with the English translations displayed as surtitles they will provide an insight into modern Slovenian theatre also to non-Slovenian-speaking visitors.
These performances open horizons and break down the boundaries of the theatrical, reveal new languages and masterfully use languages already known; they are distinguished by their penetration, innovation and distinctiveness.
In 4 days the following performances with English surtitles will be shown:
