Goran Stefanovski is a leading Macedonian dramatist and scriptwriter, now based in Canterbury, Kent in the UK. He achieved considerable success with his work before moving to the UK in the early nineties.

His 1993 play Sarajevo played at the Riverside Studio in Hammersmith and, like much of his subsequent work, dealt with the political and social fallout from the division of the former Yugoslavia.
