Summary/Abstract: With the outbreak of the First World War, a new period in the history of the Croatian Theatre began and lasted until the end of the war. Along with the phenomena of that period, which had equally affected all segments of Croatian society, such as the general feeling of uncertainty caused by the warfare, mobilisation, death of close people, arrest of political persona non grata and the deterioration of living conditions, the situation at the Croatian Theatre was particularly influenced by the pressure of civil and military authorities on the theatre’s editorial policy. The author’s analysis of the theatrical repertoire at that time tried to get an answer to the question of how great the impact of the military authorities in the Croatian public life was, and also assayed to get a glimpse of the ideological character of the civil authorities in Croatia during the First World War.
