This master thesis is concerning the role of the manager in working with children and young audience in the world of theatre. The first chapters undertake the definition of the theatre for children and theatre played by children and brief history of this genre in the Czech Republic. It describes the history and rich tradition of festivals and parades in this area for different age categories until presence. The following chapters are dedicated to the relationship of theatres with their both audiences, current and potential. The thesis also appoints different possibilities of working with the audience and its development, its active engagement through interactive elements and impulses and building the long-term relationship with them. It defines the role of the manager in working with children and young audiences, it describes the activities of organisations concerning the theatre for children, dramatic education and concerning working with the audience and its development. In following chapters, there is description of specific needs of children and student audience and their characteristics. In next chapter there, is the analysis of the level of using marketing instruments and managerial attitudes in theatres, and the possibilities of financing activities of theatres aimed at children audience and youth. By studying the literature and conduction of my own quantitative research, I learnt about the level of cooperation between theatres and schools, and I evaluated the attitude of theatres towards children and youth audience and I was curious if the theatres are nurturing their future spectators.
