Music Dominates? Ten Theatrical Events of the Season 2010/2011
EN
The article attempts a synthetic overview of Wojtek Blecharz’s major theatrical projects, including specifically his opera productions, such as Transcryptum, Park-Opera, Body-Opera, Fiasko (Fiasco) and Rechnitz-Opera (Anioł Zagłady (The Exterminating Angel)). What these shows have in common is a clear tendency to transcend traditional operatic conventions, associated with both the form of the genre and its reception. The composer’s musical and theatrical experiments focus on sound – its performativity and inseparable link to corporality. The privileging of the body and musical gesture goes hand in hand with enhancing the visual aspect of music, which makes it possible to see even Blecharz’s autonomous compositions in terms of performance and often also instrumental theatre. This article presents the operatic work of Blecharz against the background of contemporary theories related to the performativity of music and its intermedia contexts.

The article presents an analysis of the adaptation idea for the musical Kapitan Żbik i żółty saturator (Captain Żbik and the yellow carbonator) directed by Wojciech Kościelniak. The direct inspiration for the show created in 2020 in the Syrena theatre in Warsaw was the comic book series published between 1968 and 1982. The interpretation of the cultural significance of the colourful books forms the introduction to the analysis of the show. The author also presents how the literary genre of the source affects the screenplay and the characters. The stage and costume design, the spoken texts and songs and the acting style all refer back to the comic books. The article is an attempt at determining how similar the staged Captain Żbik is to its source and what adaptation tools have been used to adjust the comic book language to the requirement of a theatre stage.

The note concerns Jadwiga and Tadeusz Kuta private theatre, Teatr Nasz (Our theatre), which performs in the Karkonosze village of Michałowice. The actors sold their possessions in the city and decided to settle in the mountains, giving up their comfortable jobs in an institutional theatre. Twenty-five years ago they erected a wooden theatre building, a restaurant and cottages for guests in Michałowice. Their spectators flee cities in order to find some rest in Michałowice, and watch cabaret, comedy and musical shows. They also undergo a humor therapy, as it were, and experience the refreshing influence of the mountains.
