75th anniversary of Powszechny Theatre in Łódź and 25 medals for its workers

In 1945 Powszechny Theatre opened in Legionów (former the Stalingrad Defenders) Street in Łódź. For 75 years we have been playing for our audience and we have been feeling a special bond between us and our spectators. This jubilee is also your holiday! Thank you for those 75 years!

-Think of the future but do not forget the past. Many thanks to those who created our Theatre, to our audience and our friends – says Ewa Pilawska, the Powszechny Theatre director. Ms Pilawska applied to Tobiasz Bocheński, head of the province administration for medals for the theatre workers. Mr Bocheński was in favour of the application and the medals were granted by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. There were medals not only for the actors but also for people who do not give applause – model-maker, sound and light technicians, dresser, people responsible for PR and ticket sale.

Due to the virus situation there can be no official party where the medals could be handed. That is why we invite you to watch a short video with the presentation of all those who were awarded with medals. And we invite you for our December preview – “Family” by Antoni Słonimski, directed by Wojciech Malajkat.
