Cultural, educational and scientific-research work
Dražetin was the creator of the Correspondence Theatre ("Dopisno pozorište"), a specific type of theatre organization and play, which he conceived and organized in 1974 as the original theatrical movement for spread of elementary theater and ethical-aesthetic culture. He was among the founders of the Drama Art Scene ("Pozornica dramske umetnosti"), whose chief executive he was from 1994.
He showed the theatrical performances in the villages, city parks and squares, in companies, as well as in the apartments. TV show of Petar Ljubojev about this project received in 1986 the Grand Prix at the festival in Monte Carlo. Dražetin has directed over a hundred theatrical plays and recitals in amateur and professional scenes, within the Correspondence Theatre. He appeared as an actor in theatrical plays and in about ten films.
By his own script, he directed two films of silent burlesque: "Disordered thoughts" ("Rastrojene misli") (1971) and "Humorists from Novi Sad" ("Komičari iz Novog Sada") (1973). He also worked on poetry and has published seven collections of poems.
His social drama "Confession" ("Ispovest") (1972) and experimental comedy "Philosophy" ("Filozofija") (1976) were performed on professional and amateur scenes. He edited the newspaper of amateur theater "Stage" ("Pozornica") (from 1974) and the editions "Tribune of Poetry" ("Tribina poezije") (since 1981) and "Mass culture and art" ("Masovna kultura i umetnost") (since 1996), all within the publishing activity of The Drama Art Scene and The Correspondence Theatre.
Besides that, he was a literary critic, theorist of theater and television. On television, he directed more acclaimed shows such as "Health theater" ("Zdravstveni teatar"), "75 years of Esperanto" ("75 godina Esperanta") and other.
Social drama "Confession" which Dražetin wrote was played in over fifty thousand micro - theaters of the Correspondence Theatre around the world, as an educational program.
He wrote a book on ethics, aesthetics and sociology of culture called "Eternal art of the play" ("Večna umetnost igre"), which is a result of his thirty years of scientific research and the choice of teaching material from lectures at universities, colleges and high schools, where his lectures from 1996 to 2013 were attended by more than ten thousand students.
Dražetin gave many notable lectures "On the establishment and operation of Correspondence Theatre from Novi Sad, as a universal correspondence system" ("O nastanku i delovanju Dopisnog pozorišta iz Novog Sada, kao univerzalnog korespondentnog sistema") in several countries - Russia, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Greece, Croatia, Slovenia, Republika Srpska, Macedonia and Montenegro.

Works
“ | LULLABY The wind is blowing and swinging the cradle, to put asleep mom's jewel. Sleep sleep my prettily doll, I'm gonna bring you the squab from the nest. Sleep son, sleep my honey, I'll bring you nightingale which sings. When the sparrows fall asleep on a mulberry, I'll buy you a heart on a swing. "Sleep Raša. Dawn, do not come yet"! A little birds on a branch will start singing. |
” |
— A poem from Dražetin's collection of children's poetry "Heart on a Swing" ("Srce na ljuljašci") (1990). |
“ | USPAVANKA Vetar duva i kolevku ljulja, da uspava maminog dragulja. Buji baji milo moje luče, skinuću ti iz gnezda golupče. Spavaj sine, spavaj zlato moje, doneću ti slavuja što poje. Kad na dudu zadremaju vrapci kupiću ti srce na ljuljašci. „Spavaj Rašo. Zoro, još ne svani"! Zapevaće ptičice na grani. |
