Summary/Abstract: The author reviews a performance – Uprising (prem: 1 VIII 2012 at the Warsaw Uprising Museum; 1 X 2012 at the Dramatyczny Theatre) – directed by Radosław Rychcik and produced for the anniversary of the outbreak of the uprising in accordance with the Museum’s tradition. The director presents the uprising from the perspective of young people who draw their knowledge of it from processed pop culture or the clichéd version presented at schools. However it is difficult for the creators to significantly diverge from this simplified picture.
