Summary/Abstract: A review of a students' graduation performance from the Wrocław branch of the PWST Theater School, Love & Information, directed by Monika Strzępka (premiere: 23.03.2013). Rataj describes the structure of the text, which, upon closer reading, reveal itself to be a network map "reflecting the everyday process of surfing the Net.” Both the text and the performance provide portraits of people for whom the process of transferring information, recalling and replicating have become the basis of existence. The author stresses, however, that at the heart of the play are the actors, who coped splendidly with the difficult task of "inscribing the concrete in Churchill's transparent text, reading it with their own sensitivities, and adding what was between the lines."
