Performance of Silesian Opera Production by Michał Znaniecki
Running time: 3.5 h
Love story doomed by the everlasting hatred in between rivalling families – the Capulets and the Montagues.
“This is a story about conflict in which innocence is intertwined with family feud of the adult world. That is why we have children in the cast (little Juliette and little Romeo). As long as they are not infected with adulthood, they are able to love and they do not think of foes, politics and personal feuds. Yet, life is different. It forces one to accept social roles; revenge, loyalty, the tokens of social identity” emphasises Michał Znaniecki, the director.
The performance was awarded three Golden Masks – as the Performance of the Year 2017 being one of them

The Secret of Requiem” introduces the mysterious story of the death of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and the accompanying aura of the artist’s last composition. Dark ghosts of the dead are harassing Emperor Leopold II, with whom the artist was the court composer of chamber music. Who is guilty for the death of the great composer? Wife? Sister? Mistress? Or maybe he was poisoned by his musical rival Antonio Salieri? The clues are not easy and anyone can turn out to be guilty… The emperor decides to investigate. Other characters from the composer’s life appear in front of Leopold II to talk about their emotions and experiences related to Mozart. Each analyses the artist’s situations and last days trying to judge others. When leaving this world, everybody is left alone with their feelings, fear, reconciliation, resignation, and hope. The theatrical narrative of exploration is accompanied by the most famous arias from operas by Mozart and combined with the ballet interpretation of “Requiem.
Saaremaa Opera Festival Night performance
“Waiting for Chopin”
Performance of Silesian Opera
Production by Michał Znaniecki
Running time: 1h 40 min
It is a theatrical musical performance reflecting the ambience of drawing room musical meetings complemented by games played with the audience, singing together and co-experiencing.
The protagonists are Chopin’s female pupils who talk and exchange remarks and comments on his methods of work and on his compositions. They perform some of maestro’s songs which he created especially for them during various social events. George Sand analyses the composer’s artistry evident in his works, and Delfina Potocka’s touching recollections serve as pretext to present some of his oeuvres. The unknown features of Chopin’s character and even less known musical works create a charade of music, words, thoughts and feelings. It is only in the finale that we learn it was all just a drawing room game invented by George Sand who collects materials for her new novel. Will Chopin arrive? This remains a secret until the very end. Maybe he will be called for, maybe he will arrive, or maybe somebody will dress up as him… Let us wait for Chopin.
