  • Zala Julija Kavčič is a steadily emerging critical writer, lover of sitting in theatre seats, and a big fan of the thesaurus. She holds a BA in English and Italian Language and Literature and is currently pursuing an MA in cultural studies at the University of Ljubljana.

    Her critical journey began in dramatic theatre and later branched into street and improvisational theatre, devised performance and contemporary dance, where she keeps running into new challenges that fuel the joy of writing. She is a devotee of Slovenia’s performance scene and its many international festivals. Her writing has found a home on platforms like Koridor and Aplavz, Outsider magazine and local newspapers. Currently, she most enjoys writing for Radio Študent.

    Appreciating the subjective nature of criticism, she seeks expressivity and poetics in writing, aiming not only to evaluate, but to step into conversation with each piece.
