Abstract

The paper deals with the organization and development of the partisan theatrical activity in the framework of the theatrical groups of the Ninth Corps of the National Liberation Army (NLA) and Partisan Detachments (PD) of Slovenia. The groups helped to revive once well established professional theatrical activity in Primorska and, after the war, became the nucleus of the newly founded Slovenian Theater in Trieste. Their repertoire, which was also propagandist and mobilizing in character, was enthusiastically welcomed by the audience eager to hear the Slovene word.
