Theatre scholar Iwona Uberman and translator Andreas Volk introduce the Polish playwright Ma\u0142gorzata Sikorska-Miszczuk and the Ukrainian playwright Olha Mazjupa. We will read from their texts “Der Schriftsteller” (Sikorska-Miszczuk) and “Richtung Osten fliegt der Ball” (Mazjupa). We will discuss with the authors how a Polish playwright came to write a play about Salman Rushdie in the year 2020 and whether the socially critical comedy by a Ukrainian author might still provoke laughter in 2022. We will also ask the authors why drama from Poland and Ukraine has such a hard time finding its way onto German-language stages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For me, Ma\u0142gorzata Sikorska-Miszczuk is a theatrical free spirit. The protagonists of her plays are often well-known personalities from (contemporary) history, through whom she deals with the great existential questions in an ironic and entertaining way. In doing so, she always succeeds masterfully in maintaining the balance between the seriousness of the content and our grotesque reality,” explains Andreas Volk (translator of Ma\u0142gorzata Sikorska-Miszczuk).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement from the Heidelberger St\u00fcckemarkt jury describes Olha Mazjupa as finding “many different scenic styles to make her story shine and to escalate the scenario \u2013 small, sharp, gruff dialogues, silent scenes of everyday tasks, surreal images. Olha Mazjupa’s text is what, absurdly, a play must be, an unfinished work of art that cries out for the stage where it is to be finished.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
