Summary/Abstract: This study focuses on the reflection of the theme of the Holocaust in selected theatre texts which have appeared on Slovak stages after 1989 (Rastislav Ballek and Martin Kubran’s Tiso, Anna Grusková’s Rabínka [The Rabbi], Viliam Klimáček’s Holokaust [The Holocaust], Elfriede Jelinek’s Rechnitz). By analysing these productions, the author explores the possibilities of the aesthetic representation of a traumatizing past, both at the level of text and stage performance. The artistic coming to terms with the Holocaust is assessed with regard to its socio-political impact on the recipient of the work.
