‘THE SUNSET’ (11.00 am)

Director: Konrad Dworakowski

Set design: Martyna Dworakowska
Music: Piotr Osak

Actress: Ewa Wróblewska   

Imagine a common room with an armchair, lamp and a turned on TV set showing nothing but white noise. In that room sits an old lady, the one who you can sometimes pass by crossing the street or on the staircase. Stop for a moment. The old lady invites you to her home and into her everyday life. Find out what she thinks and what she longs for. Etude is a poetic tale of aging, loneliness and going by, but also a journey into the beautiful memories and dreams.

‘A TABLE FOR TWO PEOPLE’ (1.00 pm)

Director: Konrad Dworakowski

Set design: Martyna Dworakowska
Music: Piotr Osak
Actor: Krzysztof Ciesielski

There is a table, two chairs, two plates, two sets of cutlery and one man. How will he cope with the excess of food and unbearable loneliness? Using just sole imagination he is able to connect with the surrounding objects and bring a companion to life. Etude "Table for Two People" is a metaphorical story about loneliness, friendship and unlimited power of human creation.

‘RE-ANIMATION’ (3.00 pm)

Director: Konrad Dworakowski

Set design: Martyna Dworakowska
Music: Piotr Osak
Actress: Hanna Matusiak

There is a cosy bedroom with a big comfy bed, floppy rug and a night cupboard with many trinkets. A woman who lives in, after putting her tired head on the pillow and bed leg under the cover discovers that when her brain is sleeping… hands and legs are… awake! Solo performance ‘Re-animation’ is a funny story about body weak points, first-aid and power of love.
