Kuglarze w dramat walą. Adam Polewka i szopkowo-farsowe inspiracje w dramaturgii dwudziestolecia międzywojennego.

The article reflects on the connections between the Polish drama of the interwar period with such stage performances as a nativity play, farce, cabaret, and circus. The text attempts to point to the possible inquiries into this important problem of the dramaturgy of the 1920s and 1930s. The author concentrates on Adam Polewka himself and his political farse plays, especially the record of Igrce w Barbakanie, a performance prepared for the Cracow Days in 1938. She reads critically the introduction to the post-war edition of this text. In her opinion, this authorial commentary includes precious information about such stage forms of the interwar period as a farse play and circus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
