Review: APPETITE FOR CHERRIES at Teatr Muzyczny Poznan
by Natalia Jarczynska - April 10, 2024


We all love love stories, even those with Unhappy Ending and there is something comforting with the feeling of moving forward and turning pages. Agnieszka Osiecka was not the most optimistic writer but I love her texts, full of the virtuosity of the word itself and this bitter-magical taste of vulnerability and courage to live.

Review: COUGAR, THE MUSICAL at The Kujawsko-Pomorski Music Theatre, Torun
by Natalia Jarczynska - March 18, 2024


What did our critic think of COUGAR, THE MUSICAL at The Kujawsko-Pomorski Music Theatre, Torun? This theater is different, founded 10 years ago, and offers a small, intimate, and friendly ambiance. With 150 seats on the top floor of an old building in a charming old town, it creates an atmosphere of a welcoming and safe space where laughter is normal, the actors are close not only in their physical dimension. As far as I know, the repertoire is tailored to the off-broadway model and to be frank, I can't wait to explore more.

Review: TICK TICK... BOOM! at Roma
by Natalia Jarczynska - February 29, 2024


What did our critic think of TICK TICK... BOOM! at Roma? Some discoveries will change your life forever. My life was transformed when I first tried a date caramel made with three ingredients: dates, peanut butter, and hot water.

PIOTRUŚ PAN is Now Playing at Teatr Capitol in Warsaw
by Stephi Wild - February 19, 2024


Kiedy wszystkie dzieci kładą się spać, przez uchylone okno, nagle niczym bohater komiksu pojawia się ON – Piotruś Pan. Nieświadomi niczego rodzice krzątają się jeszcze w mieszkaniu, a ich pociechy unoszą się w tym czasie w powietrzu.

Review: PIPPIN at Teatr Muzyczny Poznan
by Natalia Jarczynska - February 14, 2024


What did our critic think of PIPPIN at Teatr Muzyczny Poznan? What emerges is a splendid spectacle, a memorable performance that transcends eras. It's like a symphony of the ages, a kaleidoscope of nostalgia and fantasy, like an unexpected piece of sweet chocolate in a reality pie.

Review: A MASCULINE DRAMA at Teatr Wspolczesny Wroclaw
by Natalia Jarczynska - January 23, 2024


What did our critic think of A MASCULINE DRAMA at Teatr Wspolczesny Wroclaw? We love to generalize, to put an individual in a common box labeled with all the qualities, or most often with faults, and then, let's close the box and make sure that nothing can come out. Marcin Libera fights with a lot of generalizations in Teatr Wspolczesny Wroclaw's new production.

Review: WE WILL ROCK YOU at Roma Musical Theater
by Natalia Jarczynska - January 18, 2024


If you want to see an ultra production with lasers, fireworks, and a wow effect you are in the right place! Roma Musical Theater invites you for an evening that will stir your bones and your soul; a well-directed performance designed for you to beg “Encore!”. The set design (by Mariusz Napierala) is made to impress with all the modern touches, screens, moving objects, and stairs (my personal favorite in a major musical production), it's all there! From the first second, the characters are well placed, from the dancers with stunning plastic hair to the individuals in the bohemian/anarchy groups.

Review: A CHRISTMAS CAROL at Avatar
by Natalia Jarczynska - December 19, 2023


What did our critic think of A CHRISTMAS CAROL at Avatar? It’s a delicious mishmash of dance, classic literature, and Christmas spirit. This adaptation of a great classic, complex and revised is a difficult show to summarize. Rather, it is a trigger to reflect, rethink and adapt. The first surprise was the skill level of the non-professional actors. Scrooge (Marcin Dawiec), Marley (Katarzyna Pawarska), and the entire dance and acting troupe were very convincing.

Review: CATCH ME IF YOU CAN at Lodz Musical Theater
by Natalia Jarczynska - November 06, 2023


What did our critic think of CATCH ME IF YOU CAN at Lodz Musical Theater? This show is pure entertainment, it's fast, colorful, bright, and easy. A good time and opportunity to familiarize yourself with a musical theater that is still not very popular (whip whip) in Poland. The show is comfortable, warm, light and funny.
