Iconic Ljubljana amateur theatre celebrates centenary
LJUBLJANA - The Šentjakobsko Theatre, the oldest continuously operating amateur repertoire theatre in Slovenia and possibly much further afield, will celebrate its centenary this year. Situated in a late 19th century mansion at the foot of Ljubljana Castle which is also home to Ljubljana Puppet Theatre, the theatre is run by the namesake society Šentjakobsko Gledališče, which was founded in December 1920. It staged its first play in June 1921 when they put on August Strindberg's The Pelican.
Ljubljana intent on making residents fit
LJUBLJANA - The Ljubljana city is aiming to increase the share of the population who take regular exercise to 75% by 2028 by offering a wide selection of subsidised sports activities for all groups of residents. The city will allocate more than EUR 19 million for sports this year and almost EUR 25 million next year. About EUR 897,000 annually over the next three years will be earmarked to involve socially excluded, overfed and physically unfit children in sports as a leisure activity.
