The paper is devoted to the presence of postmedia in contemporary theatre performances. The author uses the category of the so-called post-theatre. In the context of diagnosis of postmedial culture, he suggests looking at modern theatre plays as a synthesis of dramaturgical, corporal, affective and technological mechanisms of mediatisation. On the basis of Vernon Subutex performance, the author proves that the contemporary subject finds its fullest representation in postmedial theatre. At the same time, reviews show a low social awareness of the new cultural paradigm, which despite creating and stimulating mass behaviours on a daily basis, is not understood or appropriately named.
