ABSTRACT
WOJCIECH MAJCHEREK There is nothing the Poles like more than to complain. To a routine question like
‘How’s it going?’, a Pole will respond with a martyred air, ‘Badly’, even if he has
just returned from a holiday in Majorca. Maybe social psychologists could explain
in some way the phenomenon of our national discontent. Anyway, it is not the
reasons for but the consequences of such an approach that are significant. My
compatriots would find a source of dissatisfaction in any domain of their lives.
Naturally, in the theatre, too.
