Welcome to the Spiritual Kingdom of Animals, a play based on Slavoj Žižek's writings and produced by Anton Podbevšek Theatre,
A Theatre of Thought
APT aims to develop its activities as a visual institute that articulates contemporary performing arts, theoretical discourse and theatre pedagogy and strives to make engaged and challenging contemporary theatre that surpasses the distinction between popular and elite culture.
Building on the concept of theatre as a form of thought, APT focuses on producing primarily post-dramatic but also dramatic, dance, musical and children's performances. Its productions, often synthesising literature, dance, music, architecture, painting, and film, seek to take risks by exploring different genres codes and contemporary performing arts methods, while reliying heavily on the category of emancipated spectatorship and the theatrical-philosophical ideas of Bertolt Brecht, Antonin Artaud and Alain Badiou.
APT produces four premieres annualy. It regularly premieres new works by Matjaž Berger, collaborates with a number of theatre directors and choreographers of younger generations such as Nejc Gazvoda, Bara Kolenc, Jana Menger, Matjaž Pograjc, Gregor Luštek, etc. and occasionally enters co-productions with other cultural producers such as Dance Theatre Ljubljana, Cankarjev dom Culture and Congress Centre, etc.
Additional programme
Anton Podbevšek Theatre also hosts performances of different Slovene theatre and dance producers, such as Slovene People’s Theatre (SLG) Celje, DUM Association of Artists, Maska Institute, EnKnapGroup (EKG), Betontanc, etc., as well as organises other cultural and social events. In addition to its performing arts and educational activities, APT also organises an art cinema programme and runs a photographic gallery.
International cooperation
In 2008, APT entered its first international co-production with the Theatre City Festival Budva, Monte Negro. The performance Kadmopolis – a Look From the Distance [Kadmopolis – Udaljeni pogled], directed by Matjaž Berger, investigates the myths of the emergence of settlements in the Mediterranean area, interweaving them with fragments from texts by Beckett, Hegel, Sartre, Eluard, and Pavić. In 2009, APT co-produced with the Bologna-based Teatri di Vita, Italy, the performance Portrait of a Lady [Portret neke gospe], directed by Matjaž Berger, which won two awards at the Borštnik Theatre Festival in Maribor in 2009: Matjaž Berger received the Borštnik Award for the unique performing discourse and Peter Penko for best musical score. In 2009, APT co-produced EnKnapGroup's production 10 Min East [10 minut vzhodno], comprised of 5 choreographic miniatures. The performance was co-produced also by the Workshop Foundation, Hungary; the Zagreb Dance Ensemble, Croatia; and the Slovene National Theatre Maribor.
APT Academy
APT also launched an interdisciplinary programme of reflection on the arts in general and the contemporary theatre discourse in particular. Aiming to inform the viewer with topical reflections as well as to prepare him for new modes of presentation, APT is developing 2 models. It organises colloquia and symposiums, thematically related to APT's theatre projects, which commonly host philosophers, theatre researchers, directors, and translators, and a weekly educational programme for the Novo mesto secondary school population, offering knowledge about the basic paradigms of 20th-century theatre practices through practical insights.
