Sažetak
The theater and film actor, director, pedagogue, and translator, Zvonimir Rogoz (10 October 1887 – 6 February 1988) belongs to two artistic milieux – South Slavic and Central European; he mostly performed at Croatian, Slovenian, and Czech theaters and participated in many international film productions. In 1919 he took up a commission in Ljubljana to become the first Croatian actor at a prestigious Slovene scene. In October 1927 the Czech director Karel Hugo Hilar invited him for a stint in Prague. Only two years later Rogoz would say farewell to the Slovene audience playing the role in Tolstoy’s The Living Corpse, thus ending his decade-long engagement at the principal Ljubljana scene. At the National Theater in Prague he performed for fifteen years creating a series of memorable roles. After World War II he changed several theaters and worked predominantly as a director. He shot many films and translated into Czech quite a few Yugoslav playwrights. In the 1950s Rogoz had to leave Czechoslovakia. Returning to his country, he secured an engagement at the National Theater in Zagreb to later transfer to the Zagreb Drama Theater. It is nearly impossible to encompass Zovnimir Rogoz’s entire artistic accomplishments, but one thing is certain: his vital energy and enthusiasm for work didn’t wane even in his hundredth year, when he gave several interviews in the national and international media and played a role in the film The Glembays.
