DRAFT ON THE ISSUE OF DIRECTING AND DRAMATURGICAL WORK OF JANKO BORODÁČ DURING HIS ERA IN KOŠICE

Summary/Abstract: This article deals with the still barely explored theatrology during the era of Janko Borodáč in the Košice theatre, where he was appointed as a director due to political influences in 1945. In less than a month, Borodáč was able to consolidate the theatre, consisting of three ensembles, which gradually managed to achieve success on a national scale. After 1948, when Communist ideology forced artists to incline towards socialist realism, Borodáč’s theatrical method, which until then was considered archaic, proved to be very productive for the Košice theatre. Borodáč, being an expert in the Konstantin Sergeyevich Stanislavsky method, was able to avoid the simplistic, vulgarizing deformations, characteristic for this period, of psychological realism. On the contrary, he created his productions within the spirit of the true essence of the Moscow inhabitant’s style. Thus, the study tries to indicate the historical context of Borodáč’s inclination to Stanislavsky’s method and to identify the basic dramaturgical curriculum as well as the directing achievements of the nestor on the Košice scene of Slovak theatre.
