SUMMARY:08.12| Spectacle for children "Dziadek i Niedźwiadek"
DESCRIPTION:A play for children “Dziadek i Niedźwiadek”\, directed and performed by Lukasz Wierzbicki. The performance will be preceded by a historical talk by Dr. Slawomir Laniecki from Kazimierz Wielki University in Bydgoszcz\, “Niedźwiedź Wojtek i nie tylko. About animals that accompanied soldiers”. Lukasz Wierzbicki is an author of travel and history books for children\, a lover of near and far travel. In 2009 he published the novel “Dziadek i niedźwiadek”\, dedicated to the fate of Wojtek the bear and his comrades from the Anders Army. The book was also included in the list of school reading for grades I-III of elementary schools. During the performance-performance Lukasz Wierzbicki will tell the children the story of Wojtek Bear. However\, it will not be an ordinary meeting\, but rather a journey through half the world with Wojtek Bear. The writer will be the guide on this journey. The meeting with Lukasz Wierzbicki will last about 60 minutes.

SUMMARY:08.12| Theatrical performance "Niedźwiedź Wojtek"
DESCRIPTION:Theatrical performance “Niedźwiedź Wojtek”. The play\, which is based on a text by Tadeusz Słobodzianek\, is intended for older teenagers (16 and older) and adults. The show is directed by Aldona Figura\, with actor Michal Piela performing in the play. The play had its pre-premiere special screening in August 2024 at the Capital of the Polish Language Festival in Szczebrzeszyn The duration of the play is 70 minutes.    \nPerformance Description:\n“Niedźwiedź Wojtek. The monodrama” by Tadeusz Słobodzianek tells an authentic story about the famous Persian bear\, who was taken in by Polish soldiers in the nascent Anders Army during World War II and who “took part” in the Battle of Monte Cassino. The narrator of the story is Wojtek the bear himself\, and from his perspective we learn about the history of the Second Polish Corps\, from the uprising in Iraq\, through the realities of the Battle of Monte Cassino\, to the dissolution in Scotland after the war\, as well as the military daily life and individual soldiers with different backgrounds\, personalities and life stories\, to whom the bear has become attached. For them\, the bear is a mascot they play with and care about\, but also someone they can confide in about their dilemmas\, dreams and traumas. It seems as if Wojtek the bear has become a vehicle for recording human and historical history\, which he reveals to us\, modern people. It is as if he is a war veteran who recalls the times of his service and finds it difficult to find himself in the non-military reality. This is a story full of humor and emotion\, about brotherhood and courage\, but also irony and the tragedy of human (and animal) fate.
