Summary/Abstract: An account of the Festival of New Dramaturgies in Bydgoszcz (24 Sep-1 Oct 2016). Paweł Schreiber writes that it was Europe, a construct falling apart before our very eyes, was the most important point of reference for the performances presented at the festival. He analyses, among others, Oliver Frljić's Our Violence, Your Violence, pointing out the all too simple juxtaposition of abstract visions of the East and the West. The author finds a very different model of dealing with the same subject in the documentary performance Case Farmakonisi or the Right of Water by Anestis Azas and Empire by Milo Rau, which he considers to be the best performance of the festival. He also writes about Late Night by Blitz Theatre Group and Europeana from Divadlo na Zábradli.
