Summary/Abstract: Katarzyna Niedurny reviews Elżbieta Depta's performance Wojna nie ma w sobie nic z kobiety (The Unwomanly Face of War), based on the non-fiction book by Svetlana Alexievich (Teatr im. Stefana Żeromskiego, Kielce, prem.: 16 May 2016). The author focuses predominantly on the inconsistencies and inaccuracies of the performance. She points out the dismissive attitude towards women's ways of expressing resistance against the war and the confirmation of their stereotyped image as wives and mothers who should care about their homes rather than fight.
