Pan Twardowski

According to the legend, Twardowski was a nobleman living in Kraków in the 16th century. His character is probably modelled on one of the sorcerers of King Sigismund Augustus—who supposedly evoked the spirit of the king's deceased wife, Barbara Radziwiłłówna, which he did thanks to the use of a magic mirror.

The performance of Teatr Współczesny in Krakow shows, with a large dose of humor, the colorful adventures of Mr. Twardowski, his acquaintance and battles with the Devil, the Basilisk (a guest from another fairy tale) and Mrs. Twardowska herself.
