Summary/Abstract: A text devoted to a play by Krzysztof Warlikowski – African Tales Based on Shakespeare (Nowy Theatre in Warsaw, co-produced by Prospero Group, premiere: 5.10.2011 – Liege, Polish premiere: 2.12.2011 – Warsaw). Describing the various parts of the play in detail, Zielińska explores the intricate construction of the script, the work of the actors, who she sees as committing a kind of physical self-sacrifice, the space, which creates a sense of intimacy in spite of its monumentality, and the theme of exclusion. In sum, she states that the greatest asset of the play is the “intimate contact it creates with the viewer, despite its monstrosity.”
