"Theater of Women Artists" is the third volume of Kazimierz Braun's collected dramas in a bilingual edition in Polish and English. It contains dramatic recounting of the fates and works of outstanding Polish female artists- the excellent painter Tamara Lempicka, a master of the "Art Deco" style; silent film actress Pola Negri, the brightest star in Hollywood in the 1920s; the most famous Polish singer of the 1930s, Hanka Ordon wna ("Ordonka"); and two excellent actresses for whom there was no place in Poland after the introduction of martial law in 1981, who found themselves in emigration but did not stop dreaming about the stage. All these are fascinating women, so different and expressing themselves in different artistic genres, yet, at the same time-so similar in their passion for artistic perfection and transcending themselves in their art.
