Glej Theatre is Slovenia s oldest independent theatre. Founded back in 1970, this experimental venue and production house has been led through the decades by young theatre creators, many of whom are Slovenia s most well known theatre practitioners today: among others Du an Jovanovi , Janez Pipan, Eduard Miller, Nevenka Kopriv ek, Matja Pograjc, Bojan Jablanovec, Tomi Jane i , Sebastijan Horvat, Diego DeBrea.

Glej produces and hosts research theatre projects of up-and-coming directors, who can apply to Glej s open call. Glej offers a stepping-stone to young directors with professional working conditions, enabling quick and effective personal artistic growth and providing an entry point to a successful theatre career.

In the last few years Glej has been successfully touring festivals across Europe and the United States. Since 2009 the theatre is a member in standing of two international theatre networks: IETM - International network for contemporary performing arts and DNA - Development of new arts.

Glej s current artistic director Marko Bulc s vision is to keep Glej a daring urban theatre, dedicated to theatre research and promoting the new and marginal. Glej brings audiences an unusual theatre experience, while offering creators a space of uncensored freedom of creation.
