Wznowienie (“The Revival”) by Maciej Wojtyszko @The

Two actresses. One dead director. A puppet show that means far more than it should. Wznowienie (“The Revival”), a darkly funny and quietly devastating play by acclaimed Polish playwright Maciej Wojtyszko, comes to London for just five performances. Performed in Polish with English surtitles, this rare production explores artistic genius, obsession, grief and the complicated relationships we form with those we admire most.
