For over a decade, devised theatre has been one of the most recognisable and attractive performative practices in the Slovenian space, with more and more creators using it. Original projects created using the principles of devised theatre are increasingly represented at all Slovenian theatre festivals, and it is interesting that in the recent period, they are predominantly created by the young(est) generation of theatre artists as they had previously been the domain of the middle-generation creators. The round table and its guests will blend the theoretical and creative views of the phenomenon that explores and expands the limits of the classical dramaturgy and is very personal in concretising and determining  the essence of the world that we are experiencing here and now.
