MISTER TWARDOWSKI. THE FAIRYTALE
Mister Twardowski. The Fairytale is a performance taking the audience into the world of imagination, magic and humour. The first part present the story of the famous Krakow sorcerer, his difficulties as he loses faith in his own abilities and the circumstances which prompted him to sign a pact with the devil. The second part draws from Mistress Twardowska, a ballad by Adam Mickiewicz. When the devil lures Twardowski to the inn and demands his soul, it is the sorcerer’s wife who saves the day. The backdrop of our protagonists’ adventures is provided by a musical collage composed of various pieces by Stanisław Moniuszko. The stage features the devil straight from the depths of hell, whips made of pure sand and dancing pipes – you simply must not miss it!
