„...rozwiązania, które proponuję, są niepełne...”. Cztery scenariusze studenta Grzegorzewskiego
‘...the solutions I propose are incomplete...’. Four scenario studies by student Grzegorzewski

Summary/Abstract: This article is a discussion of four adaptations that Jerzy Grzegorzewski prepared during his studies at the Directing Department of the State Higher School of Theatre in Warsaw. The works, which were prepared based on The Literary Life of Thingum Bob, Esq. by Edgar Allan Poe, An Episode of the Reign of Terror by Honoré de Balzac, King IV by Stanisław Grochowiak, and The Balcony by Jean Genet, have not yet been analysed more extensively in research on the director’s work. Adaptations in the form of typescripts are documents of work that probably have not been staged. This is a special type of content, very rarely taken into account in research on theatre archives. The aim of the analysis was to analyse the various operations that Grzegorzewski used in his adaptations and to reconstruct the staging potential recorded in them. This procedure is consistent with W.B. Worthen’s approach in which the tension between the literary and the performative identity of a work is the focus of interest.
