Summary/Abstract: In her review of Waiting for Godot directed by Michał Borczuch (Teatr im. Stefana Jaracza w Łodzi, prem.: 15 Oct 2016) Zuzanna Berendt focuses on the strategies used in the staging of Samuel Beckett's classic text. The author describes Dorota Nawrot's stage design and costumes. She also traces the operations performed on the text, such as mediatisation through offstage voice, migration of roles between the characters or dubbing. She emphasises the fact that in staging Waiting for Godot,Borczuch problematises the position of the director vis a vis the classic drama and searches for the boundaries of his own freedom in working on it, and he establishes contact with the play precisely by struggling against the text.
