The authoress maps out the changes in the direction of the theatre in the period in question based on her deliberation of production elements (dramaturgy, direction, actor's means of expression, stage design, theatre space), and she also gives a general overview of the current situation in the theatre. She is especially intrigued by the diversity of themes, artistic means of expression, and principles, which determine new trends in the creation of young and middle generation of theatre makers. The question which crops up is about a more encompassing communicativeness, or, rather, the narrowing down of the group of interested parties or recipients, and, above all, about a need to capture these trends and to process them by theatre theorists. Intriguing is not only the fact about the mingling of drama/theatre genres but also, in addition to musical productions, a kind of comeback to the 'poor, pure theatre'.
