The Archive of “Failure”, The Failure of the Archive

Summary/Abstract: The Archive of „Failure”/The Failure of the Archive analyzes archival materials on the play Blasted, directed by Maja Kleczewska, which premiered in 2007 at the National Stary Theater in Krakow. The performance was only held four times and was nearly unanimously declared a failure by the critics. The aim of this text is to supplement the official, institutional archive of the play with a conversation with people involved in the production and its audiences, to discover what caused the play’s highly negative reception.
