Summary/Abstract: It is known that the real source of Turkish dramaturgy inspired from religious – based theatric ceremonies of Turks. But western-type theater was introduced with our culture with the Rescript of Gülhane (Tanzimat) which is considered as the officially end of Ottoman Empire. İbrahim Şinasi Efendi went down in the modern Turkey’s history as the first Turkish play writer and dramaturge by writing “Marriage of a Poet” comedy in 1859. The word of “dramaturge” got into Turkish literature history after the establishment of “Theater Committee” in 1873 consisting of Turkish writers. Aiming to develop dramaturgy, and to do this job better, “Literary Commission” was established within the ''Darülbedayi-i Osmani'' theater. In 1929 officially first dramaturge was reported to the duty by state in Turkish literary history.
