Sažetak
Budak's relationship with the theatre started in his early childhood. This love lasted longer than the average human life. In this paper we provide a comprehensive analysis of that relationship. He always participated in theatrical life, taking on the roles of actor, director, initiator or manager of various institutions. Budak’s literary work is also linked to the theatre. Pero Budak is our most popular dramatic writer regarding the number of performances, as well as the range of locations where these have taken place. Some of his dramas have not only lived a rich life on our stages since their creation, but were also performed on stages around the world. They were translated into and performed in foreign languages. His most popular comedies have been played several hundred times; for instance Hank has recorded over 300 performances since its premiere in 1953 at Komedija Theatre. Very few Croatian, or indeed any other comedies have achieved this. It has been staged by almost every Croatian professional theatre as well as countless amateur companies. Furthermore, almost all Croatian theatres have staged Blizzard with a record number of repeat performances. An overview of his repertoire is proof of Budak's continuous presence in Croatian theatres.
