Zmagania teatru ze śląską tożsamością
Journal Title: Anthropos? - Year 2014, Vol 23, Issue 23
Abstract
The article discusses the problem of locality (ethnic and cultural identity) in the performances in theatres in Silesia. Since 10 years directors have used elements of local culture and history in theirs shows. Narrative referring to the identity of the indigenous people of the region seems to be very important for the local society. "Silesian performances" are very popular. However, the overwhelming number of performances, treat Silesian identity in stereotyped way, focusing on the past, which is mythologized. Recently, this approach, has changed a little. Artists try to show the present problems of inhabitants of the region and theirs hybrid identity.
