Report on the performance of the first secular play Krestalica in the Theater Rondella in August 1813 in Budapest that translated and organized Joakim Vujić.
In the autumn of 1834 at the invitation of Grand Duke Miloš, Joakim Vujić, best known and highly esteemed person for his theater work, came to Kragujevac with large experience and repertoire.
Knjazesko Srbski Teatar – First Serbian Court Theater was placed within the adapted premises of typography and it was a building with the stage, boxes and ground floor.
These were mostly Vujić's plays performed for the Grand Duke and his family and the representatives of the people i.e. members of Assembly; the music was composed by Jozef Slezinger.
[6] Creator of the Statuette of Joakim Vujić is Nikola Koka Janković (was born in Kragujevac in 1926), sculptor and a regular member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts.
That is the reason why City of Kragujevac should bear the name of Teatropolis, which was proclaimed in 2005, on the 170th anniversary of foundation of the oldest theatre in renewed Serbia.
