In my master’s thesis, I explore my creative process in the project Mak for Mak, which was developed during my studies in the Master’s Programme in Acting, in the academic year 2024/2025. The project is based on the collection of poetry The Stone Sleeper by Mak Dizdar, which I contextualize within the historical context of medieval Bosnia and Herzegovina and connect with the theme of searching for identity. The thesis discusses the working methodology and the process of creating the final production, focusing on showings, process-oriented rehearsals in individual stages of the creative process, creative challenges, and reflection on the received feedback. The fundamental theoretical framework is devised theatre, which I compare with the practical work while reflecting on its significance for my own process. The thesis also addresses the concepts of autofiction, documentary theatre, and multimedia theatre.
