Summary/Abstract: The article „The Theatre Professional and The Pedagogy of His Art” is a document of interest for everybody involved in theatre and theatre pedagogy, because it settles the most important principles regarding theatre pedagogy nowadays, especially in Romania. Nicolae Mandea, an experienced Professor in the problems of Theatre in Education, community theatre, discusses the main principles in the artistic education: the position of Theatre education into the curriculum, talks about the fact that theatre and dance emphasise relation, that the two keywords in theatrical pedagogy must be Game and Reality, not imitation. He also approaches the two-way problem of the training through theatre workshops and theatre performances and states the fact that the new total artist is the one capable of practicing (acting, directing, choreography, puppetry and so on) and also teach his art, both for children and adults.
