Comparative theatrical analysis of two Krešimir Dolenčić's adaptations of Uncle Maroye written by Marin Držić, performed at the Dubrovnik Summer Festival

Marin Držić najveći je hrvatski komediograf, a njegov Dundo Maroje smatra se njegovim najboljim djelom, ali i jednom od najboljih hrvatskih komedija uopće. Otkad je ponovno otkriven i pravedno valoriziran tek u 20. stoljeću, Držićeva se djela počinju izvoditi na gotovo svim hrvatskim i mnogim inozemnim pozornicama. Među kazališne redatelje koji su ponudili svoje čitanje Dunda Maroja ubraja se i Krešimir Dolenčić koji taj predložak postavlja u tri režije na Dubrovačkim ljetnim igrama. Cilj ovoga rada analizirati je i usporediti video snimke Dolenčićevih dviju režija (iz 1997. i 2014. godine), odnosno prikazati redateljev različit pristup predlošku. Pridržavajući se u većoj mjeri predloška, Dolenčić režijom iz 1995. publici predstavlja svijet renesansnoga, a režijom iz 2014. viziju modernog Dunda Maroja. Osim predloškom analiza se bavi i ostalim, jednako važnim aspektima kazališnog čina – ansamblom, kostimografijom, scenografijom.Marin Držić is the greatest Croatian comedian and his Uncle Maroje is considered to be his best comedy, but also one of the best Croatian comedies in general. Since it was rediscovered and rightly valorized in the 20th century, Držić's works have begun to be performed on almost all Croatian and many foreign stages. Among the theater directors who offered their reading of Uncle Maroje is Krešimir Dolenčić who made three directions at the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze and compare the videos of Dolenčić's two theater productions (from 1997 and 2014) and by that to show the director's different approach to the Držić's comedy. With the first direction Dolenčić impersonates the world of the Renaissance, but with the second one he presents the vision of the modern Uncle Maroje. In addition to the Držić's comedy, the analysis deals with other, equally important aspects of the theatrical act - ensemble, costume design, scenography
