مستخلص: This article assesses Irish drama's impact on Poland's theatrical world from the mid- to late twentieth century. In spite of the anticipation on the part of audiences and critics at the prospect of witnessing a spectacle which could potentially celebrate the fraternal cultures of both Poland and Ireland, very often the same productions only served to confirm that perceptions of national affinity and empathy were somewhat illusory and that the cultural gulf was wider than had previously been thought. What is more, many Irish plays came to Poland years after they had premièred elsewhere, and as a consequence of this tardiness, potential dialogue about contemporary issues common to both countries was undermined almost from the outset.
