SoToSpeak 2020/2021

The cycle of theatre essays SotoSpeak – the term essay is used rather loosely in this context and denotes a text with a theoretical basis and a clearly emphasised literary dimension, possibly enriched with personal connotations – brings original texts performed by their authors. The first such essay was prepared by Boštjan Narat himself in the framework of the Days of Slovenian Nationalism at Nova pošta, but this time he invited other authors to participate – those who are capable of creating a good text and then staging it, with all the embarrassments and limitations that this may entail. “The point is to listen to and watch the author who is performing his own text. Even singer-songwriters are not necessarily the best interpreters of their songs, but we still want to listen to them,” says Narat.
