The Theatre Bridge between Macedonia and Slovenia: Theatre Festivals
The Theatre Bridge between Macedonia and Slovenia: Theatre Festivals

Summary/Abstract: The paper offers two perspectives for analysing this specific cultural collaboration based on statistical analyses of the data collected during the bilateral research project between Macedonia and Slovenia in the field of the theatre. On the one hand, the authors analyse the presence of the Slovenian theatre productions at the various theatre festivals in Macedonia, and, on the other, the presence of the Macedonian theatre production and theatre artists at different theatre festivals in Slovenia. In the conclusion, they present the combined results of the bilateral research, emphasising the most frequent exchange habits found in the Macedonian and Slovenian theatre festivals during the last 25 years. The total sum reveals a discrepancy in the bilateral collaboration: 69 Slovenian productions participated in the Macedonian theatre festivals; 33 Macedonian productions in the Slovenian theatre festivals and 13 Macedonian productions in various theatres in Slovenia. The international festivals Ex Ponto (Slovenia) and MOT (Macedonia) played a crucial role in this relation.
