The Forefathers' Eve Historical Reconstruction Group

Summary/Abstract: A review of the play Forefathers' Eve Part III directed by Michał Zadara at the Polski Theater in Wrocław (premiere: 10.04.2015). Majchrowski stresses that, in trying to distance himself from formulaic interpretations, the director alludes to a different theatrical or film convention in every scene (e.g. the Warsaw Salon bears traces of operetta style). Although the text is staged in its entirety, there is a non-orthodox approach to its rhythm and versification. A major advantage of the production is the combination of the conscious staging and interpretation of the tradition of the text with an ironic, fresh, and innovative reading.
