Marcin Liber and Michał Kmiecik adapt Vonnegut at the Wrocław Contemporary Theatre.
From a classic science fiction novel, Liber and his team have created a thrilling, impressive performance about the randomness of life, free will and the limitations of the linearity of time, wrote Przemek Gulda (guldapoleca) about the production of Slaughterhouse Five. And he added that the action moves from wartime Dresden to the States in times of prosperity, hooking up with the planet Tralfamadoria. Powerful music, monumental set design and colourful costumes make these locations very impressive. The collective scenes are superbly conducted, but there is also room for great performances, led by the outstanding role of Rafał Cieluch—emphasises Gulda.
