International Theatre Day is the moment we’ve been waiting for to share this special news with you!
To celebrate today’s holiday and the upcoming jubilee edition of Shakespeare in the Park, it’s time for a drumroll as we announce this year’s premiere title!
Presenting:
THE COMEDY OF ERRORS directed by John Weisgerber.
Why this play? Because a jubilee deserves a dose of pure energy, laughter, and absolute stage madness!
What do you need to know about this title?
It is one of William Shakespeare’s earliest and most dynamic plays. You can expect:
Double Vision: Two pairs of separated twins (masters and their servants) end up in the same city, sparking an avalanche of absurd misunderstandings.
A Masterful Farce: This is Shakespeare at his most entertaining – full of humor, brilliant wit, and unexpected plot twists.
The Perfect Open-Air Vibe: There is no better place for a story about chaos, love, and finding one’s identity than our outdoor stage.
We’ve invited an incredible team of professionals to collaborate on this year’s premiere:
Set Design: Wojciech Stefaniak
Costumes: Kornelia Dzikowska-Demirska
Music: Marcin Nierubiec & Szymon Suchoń
Choreography: Ewelina Adamska-Porczyk
On stage, you will see:
Michał Podsiadło, Jakub Wons, Bartosz Jędraś, Piotr Nerlewski, Monika Dryl, Katarzyna Kołeczek, Barbara Bursztynowicz, Jacek Bursztynowicz, Tamara Arciuch, Dominik Bąk, Sebastian Bieżyński, Bartek Kasprzykowski, Jowita Kropiewnicka, Łukasz Kurczewski, Łukasz Mazurek, Maciej Nawrocki, Maurycy Popiel, Samanta Zwolennik.
Get ready for evenings full of laughter, because this summer in the park, nothing will be what it seems! Stay tuned – details regarding dates will be announced soon.
Let’s celebrate today, for life is a theater!
As a classically trained actor and director, with over 40 years experience in the theatre in Canada and internationally, I can still vividly remember the first time I saw Shakespeare In The Park. It was a magical experience that left a lasting impression and ultimately inspired me to create Szekspir w Parku in Warsaw in 2016.
From the beginning, my dream and mission were clear: to form a dedicated acting company and present Shakespeare’s plays in the spirit in which they were originally intended. By bringing productions of SITP that are fresh, bold, imaginative and thought provoking to Warsaw, it is my hope to not only touch young hearts with his works, but also to create a shared experience that would also educate, enlighten and inspire while entertaining all walks of Polish society.
Through Szekspir w Parku, we aim to bring Shakespeare’s timeless stories to Polish audiences, in the Polish language.
Therefore it is always my intention to provide our performances free of charge, so that everyone, friends, families and especially young people can discover the same sense of magic and wonder that first moved me.
„It is our mission to make Shakespeare In The Park the most important summertime cultural event in Warsaw. As it is in every major city around the world.”
