This project deals with personnel recruitment in (drama)theaters and in musical theaters. The thesis consists of theoretical and practical parts. The theoretical part contains the development of social function of the theater as a culture phenomenon (it focuses also on acting and the relationship between stage and auditorium). The practical part of thesis examines the whole acting branch within the context of Czech republic by combining an understanding of the key aspects of the profession: remuneration, legislation, education, ways of recruitment etc.). There is also a description of other critical concerns of the sphere: the personal work, especially given the contracts, working environment, trade unions as well as motivation, adaptation, conducting, evaluation and control of actors etc. Using a mixed methods approach combining interviews with a production manager, psychologist, 1 quantifiable survey (made by Czech Trade Union of Actors), and interviews (and articles) in media, this study compiles accounts and ways of recruitment as well as other factors of this profession(such as psychological aspects). Results from both the surveys and interviews reflect the sphere in the Czech republic and partly in foreign countries (completed with the findings of an international survey made by EuroFIA, European section of International Federation of Actors).
