Abstract: The article examines the portrayal of the city of Kalisz in theatrical productions staged at the Wojciech Bogusławski Theatre.

The discussion includes the following productions: Nights and Days, Joseph’s Shadow, Disasters in the History of the City, K. or Memories from the City, The City of Empty Pianos, Shear Madness, and Prosna: A Musical Crime Story.
