Muzyka górą? 
Dziesięć wydarzeń teatralnych 2010 roku

Abstract

In 2010 some domination of musical and opera theatres over dtramatic ones could be observed, as these institutions managed Polish theatrical life in the most interesting way. Pasażerka (The Passenger) by M. Weinberg directed by D. Pountney and Traviata by G. Verdi directed by M. Treliński in Teatr Wielki were spectacles that again demonstrated the importance of this growing rank of theatrical life. Premieres of Nędznicy (Les Misérables) by C.­M. Schönberg directed by W. Kępczyński in Musical Theatre Roma in Warsaw and Lalka (The Doll) of B. Prus, directed by W. Kościelniak in Musical Theatre in Gdynia presented two types of musical theatre in Poland: the entertaining and sophistically artistic ones. In 2010 some premieres were presented by the most famous Polish directors: K. Lupa (Persona. Ciało Simone) and K. Warlikowski (Koniec). T. Słobodzianek's drama Nasza klasa (Our Class) was awarded Nike Literary Prize. Some interesting events also took place in private theatres (Sprzedawcy gumek (The Rubber Merchants) by H. Levin directed by A. Tyszkiewicz in Theatre IMKA in Warsaw) and so­called 'minor centers' (Był sobie Andrzej, Andrzej, Andrzej i Andrzej by Strzępka and Demirski in the theatre in Wałbrzych).
