Keywords: Theatre; Drama
Summary/Abstract: The author analyses the notion of resentment – previously regarded negatively and burdened with normalizing and excluding potential – and proposes that it be viewed from another perspective. Niziołek contrasts the amnesiacal play, as pursued by Warlikowski in Cleansed or Lupa in Factory 2, with plays sensitive to social layers of memory – e.g. the productions of Grzegorzewski or Klata as well as the following contemporary Polish plays: Masłowska’s It’s Good Between Us, Stasiuk’s Night, Paweł Demirski’s A Play for a Child and Long Live the War!!! and Bożena Umińska-Keff’s A Piece about Mother and the Homeland. He proves that resentment is a genuine creative force in theatre.
