Bogoboj Bucović was born in 1869 and died in 1912, and the organizers of the festival present him as "one of the greatest, most dominant and most authentic theater actors". After studying law in Vienna and Belgrade, from 1892 he devoted himself to the theater, starting his career in the traveling theater, and then continuing in the National Theater. The beginning of Rucović's fame and great achievements is the role of Lieutenant Rajf Rajflingen in the German comedy "War in Peace" by Mozer and Šentan. Then, reporting himself to the Austrian authorities, he was sentenced to prison as a military deserter. He spent three months in Zadar prison. When he finally "repaid" the Austrian authorities, he returned to Serbia, that is, to the National Theater in Belgrade.
In addition to acting, Rucović also directed in his own theater, and was a translator from French and Italian.
