History


The association was founded on 22 October 1975 at its founding assembly in Zagreb and registered into the Civil Association Register on 9 March 1976.
HDKKT is a member of the International Association of theatre" target="_blank">Theatre Critics (AICT/IACT) and collaborates with the International Federation for theatre" target="_blank">Theatre Research (FITR/IFTR). It was founded with a goal to develop and promote the quality of the profession, cooperation with other similar associations and theatres in Croatia and abroad, and to protect the moral and material interests of its members. The association's structure comprises: Assembly, Executive Committee and President, Supervisory Committee, and Court of Honour. The association was first based at Ilica 42 and later at Amruševa Street 19, in Zagreb. It has about 50 active members and 15 retired, and since 2013 dance critics are also admitted.
The association is funded by Croatia's Ministry of Culture. Shortly after its foundation, HDKKT launched Theatrology Library (Teatrologijska biblioteka) with Nikola Batušić as editor in chief, and from 1979 till 1992 thirty-three titles were published. In 1994 Theatrology Library merged with Library Prolog (Biblioteka Prolog), former CKD, which was inherited by AGM (Zagreb). The new library was named Actor's Booklet Prolog (Glumišna knjižnica Prolog) with an editorial board of Nikola Batušić, Branko Hećimović and Igor Mrduljaš. From 1992 till 1997 the library published eleven books in cooperation with AGM, after which AGM completely took over the publishing activities.
In the 1980s, the association introduced the Award for the Best Play of the Season through a members' survey.




Demeter's Award


Since 2012, HDKKT has awarded the Demeter's Award for Lifetime Achievement. The first one was awarded to one of the founders of HDKKT, president, historian and theatrologist Branko Hećimović, in 2012; the second wnet to secretary general, president, critic and theatrologist Igor Mrduljaš in 2013; and the third went to theatrologist, critic, educator and president of HDKKT Boris Senker.
