one of the most interesting objects of analysis, either from the formal point of view or from the perspective of the attempts to justify the choice to play them. The scope of the present article is an analysis of the reception of two dramas by Pirandello played during the PRL period in Cracow: Henry IV and As You Desire Me, both of them played in the Stary Teatr in Cracow. By investigating opinions of the critics’ reaction to the plays and artistic biographies of their directors, the author attempts to find a connection between the meanings of Pirandello’s texts and the socio-political context of Poland in the Communist era.
