Summary/Abstract: The 1990s saw processes in the theater whose genealogy dates back to the years before 1989. As a result, the deconstruction of the communist system allowed the unleashing of a dynamic that on the one hand led to serious ruptures, but on the other hand transformed existing practices and experiences, both aesthetic and institutional ones. Simultaneous with this was the generation of new processes. In theatrical practice and dramaturgy, new aesthetics, themes, and styles took shape. It is these complex processes, unlocked in the 1990s, that are the subject of the article. The proposed analysis is motivated by the conviction that they form the basis of what has been happening in the theater in Bulgaria over the last 10 years and more, and therefore understanding them is of increasingly growing importance.
