Tadeusz Rosewicz 
Trap [PDF ebook] 

First Published in 1998. The Polish Theatre Archive makes available in English translation major works of Poland’s dramatic literature as well as monographs and critical studies -on Polish playwrights, theatre artists and stage history. Although he has not written anything new for the theatre since The Trap (Pulapka, 1981), Tadeusz Rozewicz remains the most provocative and original Polish playwright of the post-war period. His probing of the boundaries traditionally assigned to theatre has put him in the forefront of artistic innovators along with Kantor and Grotowski. Outstanding directors have sought to realize his work in production, despite inherent tensions between the author’s radically experimental propositions and the nature of theatre itself.
