mong the narrative-based genres, folk tales, in which real or near-real events are narrated, are rich cultural heritages that social memory has left to the next generations for centuries. These narratives have an extremely valuable and rich content in terms of literary and historical values. In this study, I compared the story of Tahir and Zuhre, the 1952 film "Tahir and Zuhre" and the play "Tahir and Zuhre", an example of contemporary theater. In this comparison, I first analyzed the story of Tahir and Zuhre and narrated the narrative in terms of motifs and episodes. Then I presented the plot of the film "Tahir and Zuhre" written and directed by omer Lutfi Akad and starring Sezer Sezin and Kenan Artun. Finally, I evaluated the theater play "Tahir ile Zuhre" written by Hayrettin Filiz within the fictional framework. I compared the narratives in terms of adaptation, inspiration and re-creation in the context of intertextuality. I analyzed the reflection of the main motifs in new texts around the rewriting of the narrative in various forms. In the study, I conveyed the transformation process of the story of Tahir and Zuhre, the adventure of change of the literary work from story to cinema, from cinema to theater.
