==History==
 
==History==
With its formal status as a national statutory institution, SNG Drama Ljubljana has been declared heir to the noble tradition of the Slovene Dramatic Society which staged the first performance in the Slovene language in the premises of the Ljubljana Reading Society on 24 October 1867. Since its conception, the theatre was organised under a number of names. Thus the Dramatic Society subsequently became the Provincial Theatre in Ljubljana and was renamed the National Theatre in Ljubljana in 1918, in 1919 it was renamed to Royal Theatre and in 1920 again National Theatre. During World War II, it operated under the names State Theatre and Slovene National Theatre on liberated territory, and after the war Drama of the Slovene National Theatre in Ljubljana. It acquired its current name in 1992.

Most recent productions of Slovene texts include: ''Silently Strikes the Clock'' [Niha ura tiha] (2008) by Drago Jančar, ''The Class'' [Razred] (2006) by Matjaž Zupančič, considered the first Slovene play dealing with ramifications of contemporary capitalist society and which received the [[Grum Award]] for best play in 2006, ''The Life of Provincial Playboys After the Second World War'' [Življenje podeželskih plejbojev po drugi svetovni vojni] (2008) by Dušan Jovanovič, ''The Conqueror'' [Osvajalec] (2008) by Andrej Hieng, ''Alamut'' (2005) by Vladimir Bartol, co-produced by ''Salzburger Festspiele'', etc.

Slovene National Theatre Drama Ljubljana 2013 01.jpgSlovene National Theatre Drama Ljubljana, main entrance, 2013

The Slovenian National Theatre Drama Ljubljana (shortens to SNT Drama Ljubljana in English) is one of the nine professional repertoire theatres in Slovenia and at the same time the oldest of the three theatres founded by the Government of the Republic of Slovenia. Being the major drama theatre in Slovenia, the theatre's repertoire includes contemporary, classical and experimental drama works of Slovenian and foreign playwrights.



The ensemble includes 49 permanent members, although a dozen retired members of the ensemble as well as students of the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (UL AGRFT) regularly appear in the theatre's productions. The theatre annually presents 10 to 14 new productions, while the repertoire commonly consists of over 20 performances. SNT Drama Ljubljana has presented its successful productions in more than 20 countries around the world.

History

With its formal status as a national statutory institution, SNT Drama Ljubljana has been declared heir to the noble tradition of the Slovene Dramatic Society which staged the first performance in the Slovene language in the premises of the Ljubljana Reading Society on 24 October 1867. Since its conception, the theatre has been organised under a number of names. Thus the Dramatic Society subsequently became the Provincial Theatre in Ljubljana and was renamed the National Theatre in Ljubljana in 1918, in 1919 it was renamed to Royal Theatre, and in 1920 again to National Theatre. During World War II, it operated under the names State Theatre and the Slovene National Theatre on Liberated Territory and, after the war, as the Drama of the Slovene National Theatre in Ljubljana. It acquired its current name in 1992.

Programme

SNT Drama presents a varied programme of outstanding and critically acclaimed theatre created by the county's top actors and directors. Always striving to stay relevant for contemporary audiences, the theatre's repertoire includes international and Slovenian classic drama as well as contemporary dramatic works by playwrights who have importantly transformed the stage and playwriting.

The theatre collaborates with acclaimed Slovenian and foreign theatre directors, such as Matjaž Zupančič, Jernej Lorenci, Sebastijan Horvat, Dušan Jovanović, Vinko Möderndorfer, Janusz Kica, Ivica Buljan, Nina Rajić Kranjac, Ajda Valcl, Luka Martin Škof, etc. SNT Drama has been regularly commissioning also younger directors with new poetics and aesthetics.

Plays by leading Slovenian playwrights, such as Simona Semenič, Rudi Šeligo, Ivo Svetina, Drago Jančar, Gregor Strniša, Matjaž Zupančič, Rok Vilčnik, Vinko Möderndorfer etc., are regularly produced by the theatre. These stagings, often based on award-winning texts (e.g., the Slavko Grum Award, regularly appear at domestic festivals and win awards (Maribor Theatre Festival, Week of Slovenian Drama, Days of Comedy).
