Pier Paolo Pasolini
Ivica Buljan
PIGSTY

May 17th at 7.30 pm
Venue: SNG Drama Ljubljana (veliki oder)
Duration: 160 minutes
English subtitles.

The performance Pigsty was produced and directed on the other side of Slovenia’s border with Italy. The permanent Slovenian theatre in Trieste is the principal theatre of the Slovenian minority in Italy, which, through its cultural activities, strives to preserve language and memory, if not a complete awareness of the motherland. Pasolini’s script is directed by Ivica Buljan who comes from Croatia, but is an important cocreator of the Slovenian theatrical landscape, bringing quality and freshness and a characteristic authorial seal. He began has a journalist and dramaturge, and has been working as a director since 1995. He was the artistic direction of Drama HNK Split in Croatia and a co-founder of Mini theatre Ljubljana where he works as director and dramaturge. He also works in the Slovenian institutional and non-institutional theatres. Pigsty possesses Buljan’s characteristic aesthetic, humour, the ability to arouse discomfort and to evoke alienation with the absurd. Buljan is familiar with Pasolini’s opus, one of his first directorial successes being Pasolini’s Pilad. This performance is also relevant because of its engagement: the time of impotent ideological debate is still with us.
