Established in 2006 by the actor Primož Ekart, Imaginarni ('The Imaginary') is a production house producing smaller-scale theatre performances, often co-productions with other Slovene theatres and institutions. The common thread running through Imaginarni's projects is telling stories based on real people and events and telling stories of people who are forced into the margins of society. Collaborating with renowned Slovene actors, directors, musicians, and designers, Imaginarni aims to address the viewer with universal stories, confronting the viewer to find his own position toward complex societal problematics.


In the short time of its existence, Imaginarni produced 6 resounding productions: 5 first Slovene stagings of international dramatic texts and a première of a Slovene text. In 2007, a very successful solo performance I Am My Own Wife, a play by Doug Wright based on his conversations with German transvestite Charlotte von Mahlsdorf who survived the Nazi and Communist regimes in East Berlin as a transvestite, premièred at Cankarjev dom Culture and Congress Centre. The play starred and was directed by Primož Ekart. Imaginarni and Bunker Institute co-produced the play The Swing (2007) by the young Slovene playwright Nejc Gazvoda, directed by the film director Janez Lapajne, which was also presented in the accompanying programme of the 2008 Week of Slovenian Drama.
