Schulz niesceniczny?
Is Schulz a not-theatrical author?

Summary/Abstract: Many theater reviewers consider "Cinnamon Shops" and the "Sanatorium under the Sign of the Hourglass" to be unspecific, impossible to translate into the language of the theater. Paradoxically, Schulz's theater reception is still growing, new performances, happenings and performances are created. The question arises whether today, in the era of post-dramatic theater, there is still a category such as "indecency" or should literary works be divided into those that can be shown in the theater and those that are not suitable for it. The article confronts the embarrassing concept of "indecency" on the example of Bruno Schulz's prose. It juxtaposes the harmful voices of critics with the rich theatrical reception of his work. It is an attempt to cleanse Schulz's work of accusations of indecency as a category now obsolete, anachronistic.
