The first encounter between Brecht and Slovenian theatre took place in 1937, when Bojan Stupica staged The Threepenny Opera<\/em> at SNT Drama Ljubljana, under the title The Beggar\u2019s Opera<\/em>. Brecht returned to Slovenian stages only some time later, but from the mid-1950s on, he became a regular part of Slovenian theatre repertoires. An average of at least one of his works has been staged per year ever since. In professional theatres, Brecht has been staged most often at SNT Drama Ljubljana and SNT Maribor - Drama, while his works have also regularly featured in the curriculum of the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television.<\/p>\n

The exhibition Theatre Work: Brecht on Slovenian Stages<\/em> was created as part of the broader interdisciplinary project Bertolt Brecht \u2013 70 Years On<\/em>, conceived by Dr Aldo Milohni\u0107 and Dr Jakob Ribi\u010d, members of the research group at UL AGRFT. Dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the death of Bertolt Brecht, it involves, besides UL AGRFT, numerous other organizations, including SLOGI, NUK, the journal Amfiteater<\/em>, Zalo\u017eba \/*cf. publishing house, Anton Podbev\u0161ek Theatre, the Bertolt Brecht Archive at the Academy of Arts in Berlin, the International Brecht Society, the Goethe-Institut Ljubljana, and Cankarjev dom. It encompasses an international symposium, book editions of new translations of Brecht\u2019s writings, and exhibition events. The opening of the exhibition on October 6 at 6 p.m.<\/strong> at the Slovenian Theatre Institute \u2013 Theatre Museum will simultaneously launch the international symposium Speech on the (Dark) Times: Brecht\u2019s Thought Then and Now<\/em><\/a>, which will take place until 9 October in the same venue hosting the exhibition.<\/p>\n
