Summary/Abstract: Tadeusz Kornaś acquaints the reader with the concept behind the International “World as a Place of Truth. The Season of Masters” Festival organised by the Jerzy Grotowski Institute in Wrocław (8 X – 19 XII 2012). The author analyses two events in detail. The first of these is Mauzer, which is based on a text by Heiner Müller and directed by his student – Theodoros Terzopoulos – and examines the position of contemporary tragedy (premiere: 9 X 2012). The second was composed of laboratory exercises – Pirandello. Vaccination – led by Anatoly Vasiliev (presentations: 25,27 X 2012). These exercises involved the creation of etudes which, by constructing precise improvisations on a Pirandello play, served as a vehicle in the quest for theatrical truth.
