Summary/Abstract: The theatrical life of the city of Sarajevo is the backbone of the theater being of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since 1920 as the year of formation of the first professional public theater institution in the country, over the period of the founding of all significant entities of this system in the second half of the last century, the Sarajevo’s theater scene has to a large extent mirrored the trends and facts of the entire Bosnian theater life in all its segments: artistic, production, educational, manifestation and festivals. In the days of independent and post-Dayton Bosnia and Herzegovina, it was precisely Sarajevo’s models of organizing theater life that often exemplified and encouraged other theatrical communities in the country.
