− | The Slovene Festival of Chamber Theatre (SKUP), was launched in 2001 in recognition of the fact that many leading Slovene and foreign theatres produce their best work in the form of small performances or on small stages. As modern theatre and playwriting focus generally on detail, persuasive methods of narration, inventive approaches to interpretation and acting, the use of small stages and the creation of 'chamber' productions have become a key to development and excellence in theatre. | + | The Slovene Festival of Chamber Theatre (SKUP), was launched in [[established::2001]] in recognition of the fact that many leading Slovene and foreign theatres produce their best work in the form of small performances or on small stages.

The competitive part of the festival is currently organised at a national level, although the future goal of the festival is to become of a European event. Another goal is to establish a playwright's workshop for Central Europe and connect this to a young playwrights' competition in the festival - International partners for the organisation of such a workshop are currently being sought.
A jury confers an award- the "Satire" SKUP Award - to the best actors, directors, stage designers, lighting designers, costume designers and musicians. An audience prize is also awarded to the best performance in general. Selection is made by the directors of individual theatre houses which submit their best work of the season.
The latest edition of the festival presented 10 performances by all Slovene theatre houses, including the SSG Trst-Trieste, Slovene theatre house in Trieste, Italy. The audience awarded the Grönholm Method by Jordi Galcerán directed by Nenni Delmestre, while the Satire for the directing went to Mateja Koležnik and her Stindberg's Juliet produced by Prešeren Theatre Kranj.
