Summary/Abstract: The text explores the work of the independent Theatre Pôtoň – the only professional theatre in Slovakia to reside in the countryside. Using an interpretative approach within the process of communication, the study presents the work of the stage director Iveta Ditte Jurčová who works in tandem with the dramaturge and script writer Michal Ditte. The authors put the elements of multiple genres and intertextuality in their productions, whilst also employing alternative methods to work with words and/or verbal component. The material presents dominant, constant features of their poetics through their latest production Pastierska symfónia [Pastoral Symphony] (2019).
