Lutkovno gledališče Ljubljana (Slovenia)

Messy Room was created as part of the BiTeater programme, with which Lutkovno gledališče Ljubljana promotes the puppetry debuts of up-and-coming theatre artists. Messy Room performs memories through the medium of object theatre, using and animating everyday objects that evoke and manifest nostalgic associations. The object as one of the possible carriers of memory, or at least as its trigger, opens up a collage of insights into the artist's life. Despite its (auto)fictional narrative, the performance structure becomes a polygon in which each of us can draw our own threads of memory, precisely because of the universal communicative power of everyday objects.

Ljubljana Puppet Theatre is the central puppet theatre in Slovenia, which celebrated its 75th anniversary last year. Every year, it puts on ten new performances for children, young audiences and adults at six venues, combining classical puppet forms with various contemporary performance practises. The theatre also takes care of the rich heritage of Slovenian puppetry, which can be seen in the Museum of Puppetry at Ljubljana Castle.
