Dejmo Stisnt Theatre

Dejmo Stisnt Theatre is an independent theatre group established in 1994 at Vrhnika. In 2000 the group moved to Ljubljana where it has since worked on the principle of quasi democracy, with various members of the theatre group taking on the role of stage director. Dejmo Stisnt Theatre usually stages socially critical parodies and comedies in the form of indoor and street performances, but it also presents radio plays. The group adapts modern texts that are taken either from literature or from film or comics - authors include Dejan Dukovski, Quentin Tarantino and Kevin Smith. The performance Diareja under Slovenes, staged in 2003, was based on the comic series Diareja by Tomaž Lavrič that has been featured in Mladina for more than two decades. Its theme was the disintegration of the Yugoslav state. The show was performed over 100 times at several festivals in Slovenia as well as in Sarajevo, Split, Trieste, Belgrade and Hanover. In 2007 the sequel Diareja under Politicians was created, this time with the current and everyday political issues of 'colours' and 'wings' as its theme.
