Sulejman Kupusović (7 April 1951 – 15 August 2014) was a Bosnian theater director. Also, he directed some television films and series.
In 1974, Kupusović received a diploma from the Academy of Theatre and Film Arts in Zagreb, as a director of theater, film and television. He later studied philosophy and comparative literature at the University of Zagreb.[1] He directed in theaters across the former Yugoslavia, as well as the first Bosnian opera, Hasanaginica, which premiered in Sarajevo on 18 March 2000.[2] In addition to theater performances, he has directed several TV films, dramas and sitcoms. He directed the award-winning 2011 theater play Krokodil Lacoste written by Zlatko Topčić, in Chamber Theater 55.
Kupusović died aged 63 in the Bosnian capital city after a long illness.[3][4][5][6] After his death, the stages of the Sarajevo National Theatre where Kupusović directed a number of plays were covered with white roses. The memorial began with the John Lennon song Working Class Hero as Kupusović's paintings were shown on screen.[7]
