Ljubljana Dance Theatre (PTL) was founded in 1984 by Ksenija Hribar and a group of dancers as the first professional contemporary dance company in Slovenia. Throughout the 1980s PTL played a pioneering role in the development and promotion of contemporary dance in Slovenia. Most of today's contemporary dance choreographers and dancers have collaborated with the company, and some of them founded their own companies in the 1990s (eg Flota Institute, Fourklor).
During two decades of creative activities, over 70 full-length dance-theatre productions and productions for children have been staged and several of them have won awards. Since 1991 PTL has organised five international Video/Film Dance Festivals, and in 1993 it presented three premiere performances in the Cultural Capital of Europe festivities in Belgium. Nowadays PTL functions as an umbrella production house to several choreographers with very different modes of aesthetic expression, and regularly premieres new productions (in 2008 by Snježana Premuš, Tina Janežič and Nataša Tovirac) or shows for children (Petra Pikalo, Katja Povše). It offers regular contemporary dance education programmes (Dancelab) and collaborates internationally in joint productions with guest choreographers and overseas dance festivals (with the Linz Choreography Centre, the Slovak Žilina Centre, the German i-Camp, and the French Dance Centre Colline in 2008). A new festival called Ukrep is being planned.
Since 1996 PTL has had its own dedicated premises for professional and artistic creative work, where it presents around 80 performances a year, including both its own productions and innovative domestic and foreign performances.
