Theatre as a Tool
Večeríková, Mariana ; MIKEŠ, Vladimír (advisor) ; KLÍMA, Miloslav (referee)
The aim of the dissertation work Theatre as a tool is to research how active theatre work influences personal development of actors and non-actors. This problem is analysed mainly through my experiences gained at Summer Theatre workshop for children which I have been leading for three years and my one year experience at Norwegian Theatre company Stella Polaris. I also mention the experiences from my studies at Academy of Performing Arts. In this dissertation work I am trying to find out in which specific fields can theatre work influence one´s personality. I am closely looking at comparison between my personal approach for Summer workshops and Stella Polaris´s approach in fields of intellectual and physical approach towards a non-actor, fields of trust and collaboration. I am also writing about my personal development. All my opinions are supported by particular experiences from both projects.

For the purposes of my theses I used anthropological researches of Claude L?vi-Strauss and conclussions of David Lewis Williams.

Šonková, Monika ; PETIŠKOVÁ, Ladislava (advisor) ; KRATOCHVÍLOVÁ, Zdeňka (referee)
This work represents a process of a search of a relationship to the theatre mask and costume, it is an evidence of the process of enquiry mainly through theatrical experience.
The first part of the paper is introducing historical development of a mask, however it?s goal is not to describe the journey of a mask, ritual and theatre, it only sometimes refers to such anthropological studies. The next part is related to active application of mask in all aspects of human activities. Further work describes the finding of its own way of application and work with a mask and a costume and is reflecting on the authorship performances. Also the pedagogical methods of using a mask are being mentioned. The end of this work is dedicated to a research of a mask and a masked person in the context of theatrical work. In the appendix, there are the interviews with some of the contemporary artists related to the acting with a mask and use of mask in theatre plays.
The discovering of a need and an effect of a mask through a play, through a possibility of change, that is a question for an actor. A mask is also an aesthetic component of theatre, it is a part of a costume, a part of scenography. But for an actor, mask is a partner. It is a chance to extend the limits of an expression into imaginary dimension. This work is a search into what exactly mask is, if the make-up-covered face of actor is a mask or an aesthetic supplement, if it can change the actor?s identity, if he needs it, but above all ? how can he approach it and make it his own.

Theatre and fachidiotism
Rut, Adam ; KORČÁK, Jakub (advisor) ; ŠIKTANCOVÁ, Jaroslava (referee)
The thesis Theatre and Fachidiotism deals with the issue of profession blindness in the
context of theatre. It follows the topic of taste, emotion and craft. It also contains the
reflection of rehearsing several stage plays and one residency. The thesis as well follows the
question in what circumstances makes sense to do theatre. The author works on the
assumption that searching for the sense is the best defence against the blindness from
discourse in your profession. He is trying to critically examine his previous directorial
activities as well as the conditions and surroundings, in which he worked. He is aware of the
fact that on one hand we are threatened by stagnation in purely workmanlike and long ago
dehumanised attitude to theatre, chaos and effort to define ourselves regardless of the cost on
the other hand.
