Description
Summary:The paper analyzes the new legislative framework regulating theater policy and theater activities in the Republic of Croatia, and presents the novelties and the most important elements of the establishment, status, organization, management and financing of theaters, as well as the new regulation of the labor-legal position of theater artists and other theater workers in theaters, especially public theaters. The aim of the paper is to point out the shortcomings in the new theater regulations that can be reflected in the theater business practice, as well as to indicate the directions of possible changes and additions to the currently valid solutions that would contribute to the clarity and completeness of the legal regulation of theater activity, legal certainty and the clear provision of optimal possibilities for the realization of theatrical art projects. In particular, necessary changes were detected in the regulation of the composition and powers of theater councils, which are re-implemented in the Act on Theaters from 2023 as a link between the founder and the theater itself, with such management functions that continue to enable political influence on the personnel policy, management and operation of the theater, not only in business, but also indirectly in the artistic field.
