Practical dramaturgy of a great drama house
Rubenová, Sylvie ; SÍLOVÁ, Zuzana (advisor) ; KORČÁK, Jakub (referee)
The aim of the diploma thesis Practical dramaturgy of a great drama house (Is it possible to create a conscious artistic concept in the National theatre?) is to try to reflect practical experiences obtained during the first season as a dramaturg of the drama department in the National Moravian-Silesian Theatre and based on them to name the specifics and problematics of the dramaturgy of a great drama house in a regional city. NMST is a four department theatre operating two big stages (Jiří Myron Theatre and Antonín Dvořák Theatre) and a small stage (rehearsal room in Antonín Dvořák Theatre), where on all of them the drama department is operating. Therefore it is not a classical one department drama house as it is (like e.g. Vinohrady Theatre), but it is essential that in Ostravian theatrical context it fulfills exactly this function. Major role in the functioning of drama department of NMST is obviously played by two “systems”, which it is a part of: ie the National Moravian-Silesian Theatre (thus also other departments and its overall profilation) and Ostravian theatre scene, therefore I consider necessary to outline the wider context at first because it largely affects the drama department of NMST as its subset. The part of this work is also a pursuit of naming the task of a permanent dramaturg in this type of theatre, using which means he can (and must) participate on the directions and formation of the department, with short-term and long-term outlook, which comes obviously from the specific experience in this specific theatre. It is not the aim to pursue the past of the drama department of NMST, thus analysis of the historical tendencies of this department, but its contemporary situation, ie the present and possible future. Based on the analysis of the current repertoire and upcoming dramaturgical plans I will pursue the options and limits not only of this drama department, but of the great drama at all.

The transformation of the National Theatre and the State Opera from the marketing aspect
Velichová, Irena ; JEŽEK, Vlastimil (advisor) ; ČUŘÍKOVÁ, Tamara (referee)
The primary purpose of the thesis ?Transformation of the National Theatre and the State Opera from the marketing aspect? is to monitor the process of incorporation of the State Opera into the structure of the National Theatre, putting emphasis on the marketing potential of such process.
Evolution of coexistence of the National Theatre with the State Opera sets the topic of transformation into historical consequences and offers the overview of different operational models and cooperation between both institutions.
The core of the thesis is a reflexion of the current marketing of the National Theatre and explanation of the meaning and needs of arts marketing in general, especially mentioning the potential of brand marketing. In the practical part of the thesis I present an idea of a campaign for the opera ensemble of the National Theatre and the State Opera.
I believe that the thesis ?Transformation of the National Theatre and the State Opera from the marketing aspect? will be an asset to all future readers who should be able to look into the process of this transformation and see it not only as a historically and organizationally complicated process but mainly as an opportunity for the National Theatre to redefine mission and target of its marketing strategy.
