"Samuel Zborowski" as a score : on the performativity of drama on the example of Juliusz Słowackis work

The author interprets a drama by Juliusz Słowacki Samuel Zborowski as a theatrical score. Putting it in the context of William B. Worthen’s theory of drama as an interface, Erika Fischer-Lichte’s understanding of performativity and Dariusz Kosiński’s concept of a scenario of the prepared experience, author concludes that Samuel Zborowski is a perfect example of theatrical score. Using contemporary performances as test cases, the author proves the performativity of the text and explores the relationship between literature and theatre. The changing performance technologies revive the text and enable the spectators to go through playwright’s experience.
