Abstract

In 1988 the Polish playwright Slawomir Mrozek was invited by the Nobel Foundation and the Royal Theatre in Stockholm to deliver a speech for the ‘Strindberg-O'Neill’ symposium on the issues suggested by this title.

The speech was first printed in the Polish theatre journal Dialog, to whose editors we are grateful for permission to print this translated version.
