Solitude

(Click the images to see a larger version)

This hypnotic production, based on the prose of Polish author Bruno Schulz, tells the haunting tale of a man visiting his dying father in a sanitarium. With its eerie energy, astonishing visual effects and arresting mix of puppets, mannequins and human figures, this surrealistic excursion has all of the elements of why "Polish theater is technically and imaginatively years ahead of the rest of the world." Performed in Polish and English.
