THE LEGEND OF QUEEN JADWIGA BASED ON A STORY BY L. RYDEL

Based on a vivid text by Lucjan Rydel, the performance illustrates a few scenes from the life of Jadwiga d'Anjou. Among others, it recounts the story of her coronation at the Wawel Royal Castle in Krakow and the marriage to king Władysław Jagiełło. The performance conjures up the image of Queen Jadwiga as a strong and bold woman much aware of her obligations towards the state and the subjects, while at the same time not devoid of youthful feelings and emotions.
