Summary/Abstract: Theatrical art enjoys numerous peculiarities, and one of these peculiarities is manifested in the regulation of working relationships, which cannot be placed in the legal framework of the so-called of the “classical employment relationship”, but due to its dynamism and specificity, the employment relationships of theater artists, especially those employed in public theaters, must have a special sui generis status. In the paper, the author initially provides an overview of the new theater legislation in the Republic of Croatia, and further analyzes the new legal solutions and peculiarities of employment contracts in the theater industry in relation to earlier regulations in this area, which analysis also includes the associated implementing regulations. Finally, the author gives his critical review of the new legal arrangements of the institute of workers’ representatives in the theater council as an employer’s body with certain proposals de lege ferenda.
