TekstiThis property is a special property in this wiki. <P align="justify"> The origins of S<P align="justify"> The origins of Saami theatre go back to the early 1970s when an amateur dramatic company called Dálvadis was founded in Jokkmokk in Sweden. Similar amateur groups were then founded all over the area inhabited by the Saami: <i>Beaivváš Sámi Teáhter</i> in Kautokeino in Norway in 1981, the <i>Rágvoš</i> Group in Outakoski in Finland in 1981, and a South Saami heatre group in Snåsa in Norway in 1980. <i>Beaivváš</i> and <i>Dálvadis</i>, which is now based in Kiruna, have become established amateur theatres. </p> <P align="justify"> The first Saami-language plays were written for schools, but dramatic literature proper can be considered to have started together with theatrical activity, and with the interest of the permanent theatres of the dominant cultures in Saami plays. One of the first Saami dramatists was Kirsti Paltto, whose Finnish-language play Liemmajoen Anni [Anni of Liemmajoki] (1976) was written for Rovaniemi City Theatre. Paltto's radio plays have been presented by the Finnish Broadcasting Company, and she has also written and directed Saami-language plays for the Rágvo Group. The first plays presented by this group were written and directed by Eino Guttorm. </p> <P align="justify">The <i>Beaivváš</i> group has had a crucial importance for Saami drama because it has provided work for Saami playwrights by commissioning works from them. Among others, it has put on plays by John Gustavsen, Marry A. Somby, Rauni Magga Lukkari, Inger Margarethe Olsen and Nils Utsi. John Gustavsen s Gumpegoddi [A killer of a bear] was presented in the early 1990s. It is about the life of the writer, Johan [[Turi, Johan (engl. ver.)|Turi]]. <i>Dearvvuođat</i> [Regards] (1992), a monologue based on a script by Rauni Magga Lukkari dealt with suicide among young people. In the same year the theater put on Margarethe Olsen s first play, a rock musical called <i>Earálágan</i> [Different], which also dealt with the life of young people, this time from point of view of a deviant (homosexual) group. Olsen s play <i>Giegat guhkket</i> [cuckoos cuckoo] (1993) describes the life of the Skolt minority during the Second World War, and her Skovdnji, presented a year later deals with the subject of family violence and female oppression. Marry A. Somby s children s play <i>Ráhkisvuođa soahki</i> [The birch of love] (1996) springs from the Saami story-telling tradition. <i>Eatni váibmu vardá</i> [Mother's heart is bleeding] by Nils Utsi, who is better known as an actor, is a historical treatment of Saami politics in Norway at the beginning of the twentieth century.</p> <P align="justify"> Despite their Saami backgrounds, the repertoires of these theaters have not been limited to plays by Saami writers but have also included Saami-language versions of classical plays, dance theater performances and presentations of works based on and influenced by the cultures of other indigenous peoples.<BR><BR> [[Literature|Literature]]<BR><BR> [[Theatre|Theatre]]</p>t;<BR> [[Theatre|Theatre]]</p>  +
