Summary/Abstract: The article examines the decisive role of European classical, modern and popular drama in the formation and development of Bulgarian theatre from its emergence in 1856 until the end of the First World War. What are the initial ideas formed by translated drama, from which Bulgarian theatre practice began, how they developed over the next few decades, and in what form did they reach the interwar period, when theatre in Bulgaria experienced a turbulent time of modernization and flourishing. These are the main questions to which the text seeks answers.
