Pod brzemieniem kiczu
Weighed Down by Kitsch

Summary/Abstract: A review of Romeo Castellucci's play Hyperion. Letters of a Terrorist (prem.: 17.03.2013, Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz). The review meticulously describes the space and the stage convention that the director endeavours to destroy, so as to emphasise her own omnipotence. The issue of destruction and the new makeshift order constructed on its ruins become, in Waligórska's view, one of the key issues in this production. Yet, at the same time, the author acknowledges that Castellucci's work, despite his bold interference within the spectators' domain, is unable to avoid illogical and tiresome elements.
