PreGlej was conceived in 2005 as a series of staged readings by the younger generation of Slovene playwrights under the umbrella of Glej Theatre in Ljubljana. Today it is an internationally-recognised programme for the development and promotion of new Slovene drama, run by the Integrali Cultural Association and Glej Theatre.


Overview

PreGlej focuses on Slovene contemporary playwriting, especially on emerging writers, its main goal being the establishment of an elementary infrastructure for development and growth of playwriting in Slovenia. PreGlej thus offers opportunities to young writers to work on, develop, and present their texts through close collaboration with the younger generation of theatre directors, actors, playwrights, dramaturges, etc. The main activity of PreGlej is a monthly presentation of staged readings. For each staged reading, 5 to 6 rehearsals are organised, where the playwright continues to develop the play in dialogue with actors and a director. The staged readings are attended by directors, dramaturges, translators, editors of literary jounrnals and publishing houses, producers, etc., which are followed by discussions with the involved makers and the audience.

PreGlej also offers an important information service, the PreGlej.si Playwright's Resource website.

PreGlej Laboratory

In 2005, PreGlej initiated the PreGlej Laboratory, which takes place twice a month. It is an ongoing and flexible play development workshop in which playwrights and directors meet and analyse plays with the goal of encouraging the production and improvement of texts.

International exchange

PreGlej is also involved in international collaboration and exchange. Within the framework of the PreGlej programme, a residency by three Slovene playwrights was organised in New York. Their plays were premièred in English translation at the European Dream Festival in New York in Autumn 2006. In 2007, Integrali Cultural Association launched a new project, Let's integrate!, which is basically a production in development of a new Slovene play, while the project nEEd Circuit aimed to present the work of Eastern European playwrights in the United States and the UK. Another recent Integrali project is Myth as Destiny, a transnational partnership and interdisciplinary research project involving science, theory, and the performing arts. PreGlej has collaborated with Mostar Youth Theatre, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bazaart Belgrade, Serbia, the International Company Project, New York, and the Theatre Without Borders, New York.
