Within the scope of the research, trying to explain the developmental processes of Karagöz masters starting from their childhood stage to education and business life, suggestions for new Karagöz artists were made depending on the sample of these people. In the study, Hayali (Karagöz shadow play performer) Kemal Atangür, producing and performing plays in his shop named Hacivat Köftecisi, and directly not having a master in terms of master-apprentice tradition, was interviewed by depth interview method. Besides, without breaking with tradition, suggestions on how to maintain the master-apprentice relationship and the tradition of Karagöz considering the training methods of shadow play artists in different countries were made.
