Kolačkovská, Laura ; Půtová, Barbora (advisor) ; Ferrarová, Eva (referee)
The diploma thesis will present the phenomenon of the Folklore show focusing on selected restaurants in Prague. The research sample consisted of three specially adapted restaurants, Restaurant Michal in the Old Town, Folklore Garden in Hlubočepy and finally the U marčanů restaurant in Veleslavín. The aim of the thesis is to formulate a connection between tourism and traditional folk culture, respectively, with its selected elements, which are then applied to evening performances. The intention is to examine the processes of commodification in which the expressions of folk culture become a product for sale. The diploma thesis reveals the view of the owners, which allows you to look at the strategies of these processes, but also the view of the performers, thanks to which it brings motivation and attitude to the given way of presentation. The diploma thesis is structured into three main chapters. The first deals with the chosen research methods and my position in research. The second chapter clarifies the selected terminology and provides a summary of previous professional production related to the researched issues. The third chapter describes and analyzes the researched phenomenon of the Folklore show.
