Initiated in 2006 by Integrali Cultural Association in collaboration with Glej Theatre, the Preglej na glas! Playwriting Festival presents staged readings of plays by emerging and already established playwrights. With its programme, the festival fosters new, different approaches and modes of presentation of contemporary (Slovene) playwriting as well as offers playwriting related workshops, discussions, and round tables. The festival is co-produced by Cankarjev dom Culture and Congress Centre and Slovene Drama Week.

Overview

The festival was conceived as part of the PreGlej programme, coordinated by Integrali Cultural Association in collaboration with Glej Theatre, the main goal of which is the constitution of an elementary infrastructure for playwriting in Slovenia. Preglej na glas! Playwriting Festival thus presents an important platform for young authors, as it provides invaluable opportunities for presentations of texts and exchange of ideas and knowledges. The plays presented at the festival are staged at theatres in Slovenia as well as published in literary journals. Further, the festival aims to affirm the format of staged readings as an independent genre and promotes the new modes of perception of the dramatic and the theatrical through publications of drama texts (in collaboration with Mentor Magazine, Apokalipsa Magazine, and the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (AGRFT).

The festival publishes the festival bulletin Dramočlen, comprising dramaturgical analyses of staged texts, essays, and commentaries and reflections on the festival's events, written by the participants of Glej Theatre's School of Creative Criticism and dramaturgy students of the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (AGRFT).

2006 represented the second part of a bilateral exchange of directors, playwrights, and theatre organisations between Slovenia and the USA.
