Dwa pogromy
Two Pogroms

Summary/Abstract: Jakub Papuczys reviews the play “1946” directed by Remigiusz Brzyk, which premiered on 12 Dec. 2017 at the Stefan Zeromski Theatre in Kielce. Papuczys calls the strategy used by its creators in depicting the pogrom in Kielce “archival anthropology”. He notes that the director, together with the scriptwriter Tomasz Śpiewak, focuses on the traces, the scattered accounts, and the difficulties encountered in clearly determining the course of events. Papuczys welcomes the way the creators engage viewers in the performance and use archival materials like photographs and accounts by witnesses.
