Summary/Abstract: Maria Bałus reviews the play Jewish Actors, directed by Anna Smolar (Żydowski Theater in Warsaw, premiere: 29.05.2015) and presented during the 2nd New Theater Festival in Rzeszów (23-30.10.2015). The author calls attention to the acting space, the allusions to Jewish culture woven into the performance, and the artists' active questioning of the place of the Żydowski [Jewish] theater on Poland's theater map. Bałus also writes of the minority issues addressed in the play in relation to the wider collective, cultural identity, and the associated stereotypical ways of thinking.
