“Christmas Story” directed by Zbigniew Kulwicki

There must be good for fear to work

Ebenezer Scrooge became, through Charles Dickens, an archetypal figure with a whole catalogue of human vices. Stinginess, selfishness, haughtiness, callousness... Of course, we don't like this terrible egocentricity, but since Dickenson's nineteenth-century morality is not getting old at all, and film and theater directors continue to draw inspiration from “The Christmas Carol,” there must be something more to the story. than a naive belief that pure evil can turn into a subtle good.

Maybe in Ebenezer, however, everyone finds some particle of their weaknesses? Perhaps we need warnings that we are the ones who control the fabric of our life events and that the past, present and future are nothing more than a picture of the consequences of our decisions? Will it ultimately be an ominous or joyful picture?

Probably none of us will be visited by the ghosts of Christmas Eve, but Charles Dickens left his novels a long time ago. Among them is the one about an old, grumpy miser. Any wise man can see in this novel his apparitions arriving with warnings. Until the very end, you can lose everything and win everything. Zbigniew Kulwicki, who directs “The Christmas Tale” on the stage of the Grudziądz theater, carefully looks at Scrooge's psychological portrait and wants to see some good in it before “converting from fear”. For perhaps fear would not be strong enough if there was no good living in the evil soul?

We cordially invite you to the performance of the Cultural Center Teatr in Grudziądz!
