As contemporary education brings new demands, theater arts education has imposed itself as an attractive modern model of studying. In many countries it is studied as a singular subject. This idea hasn't yet fully taken root in Croatia, but enthusiastic inviduals have introduced this subject into high schools and written a drama education curriculum that is still awaiting approval from the competent institutions. It appears only as an extracurricular activity in primary schools, especially in everyday classes where students gladly participate in such lessions. There are many positive stances of theatrical education which refer to every young individual such as emotional development, promoting tolerance between children, sustainable development of self-esteem etc. Theatrical pedagogy is a profession which is independent and has shown its value and contribution through its vast history. With time drama pedagogy has slowly developed culture and society at the last in Croatia and the world. The more freedom pupils have in a theatrical group, the development of self-esteem and communication are questions which face many skeptics towards drama pedagogy in general. Taking in account that students often participate in various school and extracurricular activities, this thesis examines how children's plays are formed, how can one see the entire process of its creation, what is needed for the play from forming the drama group, planning and organisation, realisation and evaluation of the play. This thesis is composed of the theoretical point of view of the studied theme and of the active reaserch in relation to the entire necessary process of the play's creation. The process of creating the text with assistance of drama plays to the very performance in front of the public is also described.
