Invitation to the press conference

"Only a few days separate us from the beginning of this year's 56^th Maribor Theatre Festival. Last October, in the middle of the Maribor Theatre Festival, Slovenian theatres had to close their doors. After a long period of interruption, the festival atmosphere will mark the beginning of the audience's return to theatres. At a time when Slovenian and European theatres are reopening their doors to the public, we have prepared the central Slovenian theatre festival that will present to the audience the exciting achievements of Slovenian and foreign theatre production"

Aleš Novak, artistic director
