Abstract

This research is semiotic study. It is divided into four sections. The first section presents the methodological framework, focusing on the research problem and the significance of folk heritage in children's theatre. The study explores how semiotics operates within folk traditions to activate scenographic elements and interpret layers of meaning in performances aimed at children. The research aims to identify manifestations of folk heritage in children's theatre through semiotic analysis, with a temporal scope from 2011 to 2018. The section concludes with key terms: folk heritage, children's theatre, semiotics.


The second section provides the theoretical framework and previous studies. It is divided into three topics: the first explores the concept of folk heritage, the second discusses semiotics and its theatrical applications, and the third examines scenographic elements in children's theatre. The section ends with theoretical indicators and a review of related studies.
