Kitsch, this aesthetic category developed in the second half of the 20th century, was one of Caragiale's points of interest, describing through it the shabby and ambitious world of a state that wanted at all costs to align itself with its Western European models. Surprised in various forms, kitsch can be found in the substratum of Caragiale's literature, underlined scenically by the performance of A Stormy Night & Company at the ”Tudor Vianu” Theatre in Giurgiu, which serves as an argument. Moreover, kitsch can become an epithet attributed to man, easily found in the theatre proposed for analysis
