A was co napędza?
And What Drives You?

Summary/Abstract: Katarzyna Lemańska reviews the play If Pina Hadn’t Smoked, She Would Have Lived, directed by Cezary Tomaszewski (Dramatyczny Theater in Wałbrzych, premiere: 12.05.2017). The author outlines the structure of the play, based on a montage technique, and introduces many themes derived from the figure of German choreographer and dancer Pina Bausch. The play joins the themes of death and loss with an anecdotal treatment of episodes from the life of Bausch and the Tanztheater Wuppertal ensemble. It also has a theatrical dimension, when, for instance, the theater actors transform into dancers.
