Abstract

The article presents findings based on the materials of the Archives of the State Theatre Museum of Georgia and theatrical reviews published in the Georgian periodical press of the designated time. The obtained data allowed to draw a conclusion about the wide popularity of Polish drama on the stages of Tiflis and Kutaisi theatres. Polish drama attracted the audience not only with its high artistic skill, but also with the desire to get acquainted with the Polish theatre system, its ability to pose and solve important life problems. Plays by Stanislaw Przybyszewski, Jerzy Żuławski, Gabriela Zapolska, Michał Bałucki and others were staged in Georgian theatres. The dramatization of the novel Quo vadis? by Henryk Sienkewicz was particularly recognized among the Georgian public. The article also points to the great interest of the Georgian audience in modern Polish drama, especially the plays of Sławomir Mrożek.
