Summary/Abstract: Olga Katafiasz analyses two performances directed by Michał Zadara at Teatr Powszechny in Warsaw, based on Juliusz Słowacki's plays. Reviewing the diptych consisting of Fantazy (prem.: 19 Jun 2015) and Lilla Weneda (prem.: 29 Aug 2015), the author focuses above all on examining the narrative strategies referring to film, its different genres and stages of chronological development. Katafiasz notices, among other things, references to silent cinema or the poetics of Quentin Tarantino's work. The review also discusses the problem of adapting historical drama and contemporisation.
