Summary/Abstract: Waldemar Wasztyl writes about Maciej Korbowa i Bellatrix (Maciej Korbowa and Bellatrix)based on the work of Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz, and directed by Krystian Lupa (part 1 and 2 of the performance) and Tomasz Węgorzewski (part 3). The performance, shown for the first time on Apr 28, 015 at the Łaźnia Nowa Theatre in Cracow, is actually a reconstruction of the Ludwik Solski Academy for the Dramatic Arts diploma from 1993. The author juxtaposes it with its original sources: the 1993 diploma performance and the premiere directed by Lupa in 1986 in Zielona Góra. The review also contains references to the whole of Lupa's work, as well as remarks concerning the functioning of video cameras and film in his performances, especially in Maciej Korbowa i Bellatrix
