Staged readings of plays by students

In the past semester students of the first and second year from the departments of dramaturgy and performing arts, and theatre directing at AGRFT Ljubljana, have realised several 10-minute plays (as part of the course the Basic Elements of Playwriting and Screenwriting) and dramatisations of short stories (as part of the course Playwriting 1) under the mentorship of doc.mag. Žanina Mirčevska. Each text deals with a different subject and is written in autonomous style and language. The five selected plays will be presented at this year’s Maribor Theatre Festival as staged readings:

1. The Fall, Sara Lucu (Theatre Directing, 1st year)
2. Fiona, Varja Hrvatin (Dramaturgy and Performing Arts, 1st year)
3. Birthday Party, Pia Vatovc (Dramaturgy and Performing Arts, 1st year)
4. The Ring (based on the story "The Ring” by M. Veller), Iza Srehar (Dramaturgy and Performing Arts, 2nd year)
5. A Man Doomed to Happiness! (based on the story "Jubilee Boy” by Sergey Dovlatov), Tin Grabnar (Theatre Directing, 2nd year)
