The Spectator’s Evil Eye

Summary/Abstract: Agnieszka Jakimiak’s Provincial Artists, directed by Weronika Szczawińska (Powszechny Theatre in Łódź, prem: 8 III 2013), as the author of this review claims, alludes quite freely to Agnieszka Holland’s film. The production concerns itself with theatre, but does not deal with it within the framework of a wider socio-political story with a plot. It could be likened instead to loose musical variations. The form of this production forces a modicum of creative labour on the spectators, who are meant to expand on the production according to their independent inclinations, as well as highlighting that the spectator issue is extremely important in theatre and should be the point of departure for any postulates, discussion or discourse.
