Directed by: Tomi Janežič
Première: March 2025
Description

The theatre dodecalogy 1972–1983 (a part of the DESTINYation project) directed by Tomi Janežič is a year-long theatre omnibus of twelve theatre productions that are being or have already been created in theatres in Nova Gorica, Ljubljana, Timisoara, Ivano-Frankivsk, Novi Sad and within the Krušče Creative Centre. Their content is inspired by growing up in Nova Gorica – a city linked to other cities in surprising ways – in the 1970s, and they will research topics such as transgenerationality, borders, social, political and ideological changes, wars etc. They will talk about the places of growing up, the locations marked by us and about us, marked by the locations of watershed events. But above all, they will be an omnibus about theatre itself. The creators from the Mladinsko Theatre will take part in two of the twelve productions, 1974 and 1980; the first one will premiere in the season 2024/2025, and the second, a season later. Both transgenerational fictions will originate from creators’ personal stories. 

Theatre Dodecalogy 1972–1983

The entire dodecalogy will be shown in 2025 as a part of the European Capital of Culture Nova Gorica – Gorica 2025!, one production per month. The dodecalogy is created as a coproduction of three Slovenian producers, SNT Nova Gorica, the Mladinsko Theatre and the Krušče Creative Centre, and with the collaboration of several international producers, including the Mittlefest Festival from Cividale.
