National Reading of ”The Wedding” by Stanisław Wyspiański

The President of Włocławek- Marek Wojtkowski and Włocławek Theater invited to read the fragments of Stanisław Wyspiański's drama: The Wedding, within the framework of National Reading Action.

Fragments of this drama, presenting authentic events - the wedding of Lucjan Rydel who was a poet with a peasant woman Jadwiga Mikołajczykówna, were read from a theatrical scene, which was transformed on that Saturday evening into one of peasant cottages in Bronowice, (Podkarpacka village from the turn of the nineteenth century), filled with wedding figures and props, costumes from those days and dancers. Actors of The Stubborn People Theatre and dancers of the Song and Dance Ensemble "Kujawy" created a nice atmosphere that enriched an interesting text of Stanisław Wyspiański's drama.
