As clearly seen from a historical and critical overview of his work from the end of the 1960s to the present, Lado Kralj is a key figure in both fields and a personality uniquely interweaving the fields of theory and practice. He started his career as a literary theoretician who built himself with the thought from the theories of comparative literature of Anton Ocvirk and the analysis of the poetics of the fiction and drama opus of Slavko Grum. Following his collaboration with theater director and performance theorist Richard Schechner in New York he co-founded in Ljubljana two of the most important experimental Slovene theaters (EG Glej and Pekarna) in the 1970-s. His artistic work within the field of experimental theatre influenced his exploration of historical avant-garde, especially expressionism from 1970-s till present. Following his artistic leadership of the Ljubljana National Theatre his work focused on the role of a professor at the Ljubljana Faculty of Arts encouraging his important research into the theory of drama and theatreRazprava analizira gledališko in znanstveno-raziskovalno delo Lada Kralja. Kot pokaže historični in kritični pregled njegovega delovanja od konca šestdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja do danes, gre pri Ladu Kralju za edinstven preplet gledališke prakse in refleksije. Tako je začel kot literarni teoretik, ki se je oblikoval ob misli komparativista Antona Ocvirka in literarnem opusu Slavka Gruma, v šestdesetih in sedemdesetih letih 20. stoletja je sodeloval z gledališčnikom Richardom Schechnerjem v New Yorku in bil med soustanovitelji dveh najpomembnejših eksperimentalnih gledališč pri nas (EG Glej in Pekarna). To delovanje ga je usmerilo v raziskovanje zgodovinskih avantgard, še posebej ekspresionizma. Sledi njegova vloga umetniškega direktorja ljubljanske Drame. Ta izkušnja in vloga profesorja na ljubljanski Filozofski fakulteti ga je spodbudila k širšemu razmisleku o teoriji drame in gledališčaTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaSlovensko društvo za primerjalno književnost
