Srbljanović obtained her dramaturgy degree in 1995 at the Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Belgrade.
The first play she wrote, Beogradska trilogija (The Belgrade Trilogy), was first performed in 1997 in Belgrade, Serbia at the Yugoslav Drama Theater.

In December 1999, Srbljanovic completed The Fall, which premiered in July 2000 at the City Theater Festival in Budva, Montenegro. Due to lack of public interest, the play was quickly erased from the program of Belgrade`s theaters.
The premiere of Supermarket, her fourth play, took place in May 2001 at the Festival of Vienna, Austria. It is still staged in many European countries.
In late 2003, Srbljanović completed her fifth play, America, Part Two. This became Serbia's most popular play in 2003 and 2004.
Srbljanović's next play, Skakavci (Locusts), won the New Theatrical Realities Award, one of Europe's most prominent theatre awards. In the 2005-06 season, German theater magazine Theater Heute proclaimed Srbljanović the best foreign playwright of the season.

Hyper intelligent d’utiliser la figure de l’enfant pour dénoncer des vices de société qui en plus pour certains sont encore (malheureusement) actuels.
Ptite pièce que je conseille et je dis pas ça parce qu’on la joue en fin d’année 🤘
