Summary/Abstract: Monika Kwaśniewska attempts to describe and analyze the 8th International Divine Comedy Festival in Krakow (3-13.12.2015) as a whole. As such, she does not focus on interpreting the various plays, but turns her eye toward the affective impact of the festival, investigates its structure, promotional tactics, and suggested participation strategies. One of the more important questions that emerges in this narrative concerns the potential effect of Divine Comedy on the existing hierarchies in Polish theater. Kwaśniewska wonders to what extent the festival reinforces the “canon” and to what extent it modifies and challenges it.
