Sažetak
At the end of December 1809, in Osijek Anton Hartmann, a civil engineer made out an invoice for the construction of two manors, using a formerly signed and approved price list of construction jobs. The list of carried out construction work shows that there was a plan for building the Kommetij = Haus zu Valbo.
At the end of November 1809, blacksmith Ignatz Fuchs submitted a bill for his work on the stalls and theatre whereas carpenter Mathias Wagner was on the New Year's Eve paid for his work on the Camedi — Haus zu Valpo. By summing up the mentioned and estimating other prices of jobs necessary for the construction of the theatre, it can be presumed that in 1809, baron Josip Prandau spent somewhere between 3000 and 3100 florins for the theatre. These documents have been stored in the State Archives in Osijek under HR — DAOS 476. They were brought to Osijek together with considerable amount of material from the archives of the Valpovo manor, which had interesting and little known sources of information about the work of Valpovo theatre during its founder Josip Prandau. Concerts and plays which were
organized at the theatre were, alongside Josip Prandau and his wife, supported and given impetus to by Karl (born in 1792) and Marie (born in 1795), their eldest children. Marie was in school in Vienna until mid 1810, and on her way back she brought scripts for 144 florins. Until the end of 1812, when he was going to Pest to take exams in law, Karl was visiting numerous theatres. Two saved inventories of the theatre dressing-room show the number of male, female or children clothes items, and what clothes had, until 1817, been worn by Marie and her younger sister Amalie. From an invoice issued by tailor Anton Drabek it is clear what clothes he saw "iii die Camedi". In 32 boxes with manuscripts of plays brought from the library in Valpovo and housed at the Museum of Slavonia in Osijek, there is no trace of a script for a play by C. H. Spiesza "Das Ehrenmord" whose handwritten programme was saved among the papers of manor caretaker Martin Turkovie.
Monthly subscriptions during 1822 and 1823 attest to the existence of a theatre season at the Valpovo theatre.
