In this work Karagöz which is an important branch of the traditional Turkish theater was analyzed according to the Epic Laws of the Folkloric Narratives evaluated within the concepts of text based folklore and it has been tried to reveal the applicability of this law to Karagöz text over a sample play named “Ağalık”. We confined our study with the text of the play named “Ağalık” which we chose among these plays because lots of the plays within the Karagoz repertoire hold a common form in structural and executive terms. However, occasionally we made references to certain samplings and emphases and thus to other plays and we tried to demonstrate the suitability of Karagöz to lots of the plays. Within this context, it has been tried to show that this law applied in general to verbal and written folkloric narratives, may be applied to a style based on the sound / movement comics within the theatrical folkloric plays and which differs from others with its theatral structure and thereby offers the opportunity to be analyzed on this basis.
