1 / 1

The 16th Shakespeare Festival

Agnieszka Kochanowska

This year, the plays staged at the festival spoke about distrust of authority and suspicion of the rules that the world abides by. It’s no accident that, in comparison to previous editions of the festival, Gdańsk saw a disproportionate number of ‘Hamlet’ productions

CRAFTSMEN OF CULTURE:
African Tales in Pictures

Krzysiek Krzysztofiak

Photos from the backstage of ‘African Tales by Shakespeare’ directed by Krzysztof Warlikowski

There is No Single Mainstream

Arek Gruszczyński talks to Wojtek Ziemilski

Look around – nowadays even ads for shoes are often bolder than the so-called alternative. The desire for something new and vivid is neither alternative, strange nor unattainable. – Wojtek Ziemilski talks about his Lisbon expierience, going back to Poland and phantom phone vibrations

Polish Theatre and the 32nd Warsaw Theatre Meetings, as Seen by US Visitors

Dara Weinberg

Months after the WST, the longer-term efficacy of the protest letter is not clear

The Fight Against Monuments

Joanna Wichowska

The Maria we see in the performance is therefore an obviously made-up character, or rather a series of characters: a sequence of sketches, none of which aspire to be the single, true image

The White Mass

Piotr Gruszczyński

Artur Żmijewski did something seemingly simple, something which should’ve been done a long time ago. He transplanted mass onto the theatre stage, directly, with no changes made

Greek Chorus Variations: Oratorium Dance Project

Dara Weinberg

The production included over a hundred community participants, along with Chorea and the musicians of the Łódź Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir. Read excerpts from a rehearsal diary from the week before opening

Preaching from the Chorus

Dara Weinberg

‘I want to create a new kind of chorus theatre,’ says Marta Górnicka. If ‘Tu mówi chór…’ was the birth of that new kind of theatre, then ‘Magnificat’ is its adolescent rebellion

But Why are They Indispensable?

Marta Bryś

In his latest premiere Jan Klata abandons all the strategies that secured him his current position in Polish theatre. Sadly, it seems there is little left once the flashy façade has been removed

Polish Tanztheater?

Anna Królica

It is an interesting coincidence that 1973 saw the creation of both Pina Bausch’s Tanztheater Wuppertal and the Polish Dance Theatre – Poznań Ballet

The End of the Line

Paweł Soszyński

What Lupa staged in Wrocław was simply a bad play. ‘Waiting Room.0’ is an intentional formal and intellectual wasteland

If You Were to do The Card Index…

Paweł Płoski

The National Audiovisual Institute released a new DVD publishing with The Card Index directed by Konrad Swinarski and The Card Index Scattered directed by Tadeusz Różewicz, author of both of these plays

Death in Wrocław

Paweł Soszyński

In her debiut film Małgorzata Dziewulska takes on a challenging task: revising Grotowski’s discourse via the main advocate of the discourse, Ludwik Flaszen

NOTES FROM UNDER THE TABLE:
Kraków-Berlin: an Intervention

James Hopkin

A collaboration between Kraków’s Stary Theatre and Berlin’s innovative Maxim Gorky Theatre, the inescapably passenger-interactive events have been written and devised to invoke and link the two cities and a few of the stations en route

MASŁOWSKA IN NYC:
Virgin Seduction

ALAN LOCKWOOD talks to PAUL BARGETTO

I feel there’s a straight line from Mrożek to Dorota. She’d probably kill me if she heard me say that. Or maybe she wouldn’t be offended. But I hear it
