[A Play by an Angry Young Man from the 17th Century in the Context of the History of European Theatre: The Constant Prince by Pedro Calderón de La Barca]

The Polish staging of The Constant Prince by the Laboratory Theatre played a revolutionary role in the world of theatre: with this performance during the 10th season of the Théâtre des Nations in Paris, the method of acting developed by Grotowski and his company began to be known throughout the world. This study presents the circumstances of the premiere of Calderón’s play and its first European performance by Goethe, as well as the contemporary Spanish reception of The Constant Prince, in particular Alberto Conejero’s Esta primavera fugitiva (varaciones sobre “El príncipe constante” de Calderón de la Barca) from 2021, which refers to the poet Juliusz Słowacki, the translator of the play into Polish, and to Jerzy Grotowski and Ryszard Cieślak, the authors of its staging in Wrocław in 1965.
