Summary/Abstract: This text was created on the basis of research involving the participation of people who do not have regular contact with cultural institutions, which was carried out thanks to the cooperation of the Malta Foundation and the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. Those participating in the group interviews took part in discussions on plays watched in Malta. The author starts by describing the nature of the research, in order to respond to the question of who the spectator actually is and to investigate the method by which the spectator is perceived by the following theatre directors: Rabiha Mroué, Stefan Kaegi and Wojtek Ziemilski. By way of summary, he claims that “by adopting such a definition of spectator, we are also accepting a specific definition of human being”.
