Summary/Abstract: The main goal of this article is to present a comparative study on the tragedies Sędziowie / Judges written by Stanisław Wyspiański, one of the most famous playwrights of Polish modernism, and Teatr, którego nie było / Theatre That Never Was by Piotr Tomaszuk (inspired by the Wyspiański drama) and its production by the Wierszalin Theatre. The author focuses on the form and most important problems of these dramatic and theatrical works by discussing their metadramatical and metatheatrical aspects, and considering the issue of guilt and co-guilt referred to in the Bible and Greek tragedy while showing it as a current model exposing the mechanisms of human action.
