Dziura w głowie
A Hole in the Head

Summary/Abstract: Paweł Schreiber provides a report on the 9th Festival of New Dramaturgies in Bydgoszcz (2-10.10.2015). The author calls attention to the English-language name of the festival, which, to his mind, does a fine job in encapsulating the change in the structure of the events, and emphasizes the shift in focus to the presentation of new dramaturgy. Schreiber lists the plays and shows their diversity of themes and forms. He does note, however, that they are joined by their political concerns. He has a close look at the plays: Aleksandra Zec by Oliver Frljić, War I Did Not Survive by Agnieszka Jakimiak, directed by Weronika Szczawińska, Sounds Like War and Black Bismarck byandcompany&Co, and Oh My Sweet Land by Amir Nizar Zuabi. He considered Rabih Mroué's Riding the Clouds to be the finest performance.
