Summary/Abstract: Justyna Wota reviews Kram z piosenkami ["A Market Booth of Songs"] directed by Cezary Tomaszewski (Teatr Powszechny in Warsaw, premiere on 30th December 2017). The play is analyzed in the context of audience's expectations which were influenced by Leon Schiller's distinguished spectacle composed of Polish well-known songs. Justyna Wota reads the particular scenes as an attempt to find an adequate musical expression and interpretation of the compositions. She interprets the play as an endeavour to define their imaginary and real meaning within national culture and contemporary society.
