Creating New Comic Stereotypes on the Croatian Postwar/Transition Stage

In the last fifteen years Croatian comic theatre has been experimenting with possible sets of stereotypes organized as a new micro-society, and it has been doing so in attempts to (1) identify players of the leading roles in Croatian postwar and transition society, and (2) inform these players how to play them. Namely, the Croatian theatre has been engaged in the search for the new set of comic stereotypes not only to reflect the postwar/transition world we live in, but to create and explore on stage various possible and threatening worlds and to prevent their realization by the laughter of warning.
