Backstage at the 60th Maribor Theatre Festival

Boštjan Lah presents 25 backstage photographs from last year’s milestone 60th Borštnik Festival. A long-time photographer, he documents the urban, street and cultural life of Maribor. Under the auspices of the Maribor Puppet Theatre and the Slovenian National Theatre Maribor, he dedicates himself each year to photographing the preparations for the performances and the work of actors, directors and stage workers. His dynamic images, infused with both collective energy and individual expression, invite viewers to explore their meanings. The backstage becomes a space of transition, tension and creative energy. With a contemporary visual language rooted in street photography, Lah brings movement, light and emotion to life, blending the intimacy of theatre with the rawness of the street.

The exhibition is open every day during the Maribor Theatre Festival.
