Summary/Abstract: Diana Poskuta-Włodek reviews the book "A Factomontage of Leon Schille: Social Politics in the People’s Poland. Potassium Cyanide. Cry, China!", edited by Anna Kuligowska-Korzeniewska (Zbigniew Raszewski Theater Institute, Warsaw 2015). The author begins with a brief outline of the idea and concept of Leon Schiller’s theater, then moves on to a presentation of the texts in the book. She believes that the press excerpts, photographs, and contemporaneous reviews contained in Factomontage… make for a parallel narrative of the publication. Poskuta-Włodek formulates the thesis that the book “is not a textbook for the history of the Polish political theater of the 20th and 21st centuries,” but a montage of facts that remain pertinent.
