The article tracks the form and content of Czech theatre criticism from its beginning in the 1930s and 1940s after the National Theatre in Prague was established. It mainly taps the contemporary thinking of individual criticism theoreticians and critics as well as later partial studies aimed at individual personalities and subjects. In the genre development overview the writer pays attention to the criticism standard differences with regard to the media the reviews were published in (dailies vs. journals). She tracks establishing specialized theatre magazines, their motivations, ambitions and lives as well as the conditions and other circumstances which influenced the form and the function of criticism. First efforts to grant Czech theatre decent criticism and its own periodical can be seen in patriotic patrons of the national theatre development (J. K. Tyl). Reaching certain milestones and stages of the theatre development (opening of the Temporary Theatre in 1862, laying the cornerstone of the National Theatre in 1868) naturally resulted in intensifying the efforts. In spite of that Czech theatre criticism and its media shortly before the opening of the National Theatre still tackled the lack of readers, underdeveloped cultural environment and paralysing touchiness of the theatre management.
