The theater today knows many forms and uses different means and approaches to communicate with the contemporary viewer. The theatrical spectacle has so broadened its borders and boundaries that it gives us the opportunity to observe the scene of the combination and interaction of all kinds of arts presented in a new and different way, working in sync, the ultimate goal of which is the provocation, involvement and participation of the viewer / audience . In today's dynamic world, the theater is provoked to react more quickly to what is happening in society, not only with the themes it chooses, but also with the form and the language through which it presents them. The theatrical scene "incorporates" the inventions of the respective era as a means of developing their own language, scene and spectacle. Contemporary theater is in the process of achieving extreme freedom in terms of its choices - subject, text, expression, way of organizing the creative process, way of participation of the audience, director and actors, spaces, technologies, reality, etc. In total creative freedom, directed at innovation and experiment, there is one of the great challenges facing modern theater. The results are a variety of stage forms and expressions. This observation concerns drama. Modern theater is open to the treasury of literature, philosophy, arts-poetry, prose, drama, all visual arts. He freely draws from documentary and fictional. Uses all the possible acting techniques, established through the practices of theatrical systems of the directors' theater, dance, acrobatics and others. This freedom is a tremendous wealth and a challenge to entwine the borrowed into its own aesthetic world and meaningful context. Contemporary theater has won the right to tell, traveling through time and space. The theater is more and more sharing, personal confession, memories. The performance is more and more rare, it is just a stage reading of the play, the drama. It is built on the text, and the text is a very broad term, it is also non-dramatic text. Long ago it is not only the play of one or another author. The dramaturgical language and the functions of the monologue, the dialogue and the trailer are transformed into the free expression of the text. The themes that are being played out are seen in the everyday, in the differences, in the violence. These performances affect the senses, provoke the emotional world and thinking. We are seeing a process of constant rethinking and pulling away from it .The director's function goes through an individual creative reading of a text or theme and over-interpretations to collaborative work, a theater of high technology, a theater without actors, etc. Interdisciplinarity, the introduction of more digital elements, the blending of arts and genres will continue to be a way of building innovative forms. The importance of the collaborative process is associated with the freedom of self-expression. The choice of modern texts, the interpretation of the classical ones, does not mean the abandonment of the past, on the contrary, but the modernization and transformation of this past. Theater is the conduit of communication. This dialogue takes us beyond our comfort zone and at the same time offers us the opportunity to meet with ourselves personally and without roles.
