Girl Power
Girl Power

Summary/Abstract: The author notes that Antonina Grzegorzewska’s main aim, when staging here own text Tauryda. Apartado 679 (Contemporary Theatre, Szczecin, prem: 12 X 2012), is not so much to stand up to the ancient myth as to force its potential to submit to the power of the individual trials and experiences of the title protagonist. The performance first and foremost relates her attempts at learning to live without family support, while attaining a sense of detachment toward the past and respect for herself as an ordinary harmed and rejected woman who willingly loses herself in her dreams of marriage and motherhood.
