“When I get depressed, I read the story I told you about myself, and somehow it gives me strength.”

Summary/Abstract: A review of the play Landed in Młynska 1 by the Ósmego Dnia Theater. Siwiak first describes how the theater troupe and the convicts of the Poznań jail on Młyńska Street came to collaborate, the process by which the script came about from the prisoners’ tales, combined with Rainer Maria Rilke’s Duino Elegies, and the work on the play. Only later does she proceed to describe the performance and explain the prisoners’ stories to the reader. In the latter part of the article, Siwiak writes about political theater, stressing the uniqueness of the Ósmego Dnia performance as compared to like initiatives in Poland. In sum, she states that watching Landed in Młynska 1 is an anthropological experience.
