==About==
 
==About==
The repertoire of SNG Nova Gorica comprises contemporary and classical plays staged by established as well as younger Slovene directors and also by several directors from abroad (e.g., Andreas Ingenhaag, Georgij Paro, Paolo Magelli, Janusz Kica). The programme features new texts by Slovene and foreign authors. Special emphasis is placed on the theatre of the absurd (Ionesco, Beckett), Mediterranean authors (Goldoni, Ruzante, Machiavelli, Držić, etc.), and particularly on comedies, which are marked by Mediterranean temperament and often by the usage of dialect and are well accepted by both the critics and the audience. Thus the 2007 farce ''Duohtar pod mus!'', based on Molière's text, directed by Vito Taufer and co-produced by [[Koper Theatre]], received the 2008 Audience Award for best performance at the [[Slovene Drama Week]] and at the [[Days of Comedy]] festival, while Georges Feydeau's ''A Flea in Her Ear'' (Bolha v ušesu ali kaplja čez rob) (2007), directed by Janusz Kica, received the Jury Award for Best Comedy at the [[Days of Comedy]] 2008. SNG Nova Gorica productions appear at different festivals, such as [[Borštnik Theatre Festival]], [[Slovene Festival of Chamber Theatre (SKUP)]], [[Primorska Summer Festival, Koper-Capodistria|Primorska Summer Festival]], and are often awarded, including the Borštnik Grand Prix for ''Endgame'' (1999) and ''Meanwhile'' (2005).

SNG Nova Gorica stages around 8 premières per season with guest actors often joining the permanent cast of 22 actors. The theatre's repertoire comprises contemporary and classical plays staged by established as well as younger Slovenian directors and occasionally directors from abroad. The programme features stagings of new and classical Slovenian plays, Slovenian first stagings of plays by foreign authors as well as new readings of world classics. Special emphasis is placed on Mediterranean authors (Goldoni, Ruzante, Machiavelli, Držić, etc.), and particularly on comedies, which are marked by Mediterranean temperament and often by the usage of dialect and are well-accepted by both the critics and the audience. The theatre also successfully produces communicative works that intertwine theatre performance and (vocal and instrumental) music, which has resulted in several award-winning musical experiments, such as the performance ''Passion Play'' (2015), written and composed by singer-songwriter [[Iztok Mlakar]], also a member of the theatre's ensemble, and the musical play by the cult London group The Tiger Lillies ''Shockheaded Peter'' (2017), directed by [[Ivana Djilas]], both winners of [[Gracious Comedy Awards]].

==Programme==
 
SNG Nova Gorica stages six (or more) premières per season with guest actors often joining the permanent cast of 22 actors. Reflecting on the thirty years of the theatre's professional activity, the '''2009/2010 season''' programme included works that played a significant role in the theatre's history, namely: Carlo Goldoni's ''A Curious Mishap'' [Nenavadna prigoda], directed by [[Luka Martin Škof]]; Chekov's ''Uncle Vanya'' [Striček Vanja], directed by [[Mateja Koležnik]]; Pirandello's grotesque ''Right You Are - If You Think You Are'' [Kaj je resnica?], directed by [[Dušan Mlakar]]; ''Colloquies, Soliloquies'' [Pogovori, samogovori] directed by [[Jaša Jamnik]]; Pierre de Marivaux's ''The Island of Slaves'' [Otok sužnjev], directed by [[Zvone Šedlbauer]]; and [[Andraž Golc|Andraž Golc's]] ''Ducks'' [Race], based on motifs from Salinger's ''Catcher in the Rye'' and directed by [[Nika Melink]].

About

SNG Nova Gorica stages around 8 premières per season with guest actors often joining the permanent cast of 22 actors. The theatre's repertoire comprises contemporary and classical plays staged by established as well as younger Slovenian directors and occasionally directors from abroad. The programme features stagings of new and classical Slovenian plays, Slovenian first stagings of plays by foreign authors as well as new readings of world classics. Special emphasis is placed on Mediterranean authors (Goldoni, Ruzante, Machiavelli, Držić, etc.), and particularly on comedies, which are marked by Mediterranean temperament and often by the usage of dialect and are well-accepted by both the critics and the audience. The theatre also successfully produces communicative works that intertwine theatre performance and (vocal and instrumental) music, which has resulted in several award-winning musical experiments, such as the performance Passion Play (2015), written and composed by singer-songwriter Iztok Mlakar, also a member of the theatre's ensemble, and the musical play by the cult London group The Tiger Lillies Shockheaded Peter (2017), directed by Ivana Djilas, both winners of Gracious Comedy Awards.


The theatre also offers a strong programme of performances for children and young adults. Three of its season ticket programmes are aimed at children (Tiny Snail, Big Snail, Puppet Snail).
