Summary/Abstract: Piotr Olkusz emphasises the fact that the performance Interiors by the British theatre Vanishing Point (presented at the New Classics of Europe Festival in Łódź (24 Oct – 21 Nov 2014) refers to Maurice Maeterlinck's play mainly in terms of the main idea and the concpet of the plot. The director Matthew Lenton has retained two different spaces present in the play – the eponymous interior and the space occupied by the observer. The author of the article notices a deep analysis of the literary work in the performance, which thus becomes an excellent metaphor of symbolism itself.
