Performance | Don't Be Afraid

October 16, 2026, at 19:00

The Wołomin Activity Center — Stara Elektrownia will host a performance entitled “Don't be afraid”, which is part of the strategic goal “Open to culture”, the essence of which is to expand access to valuable cultural content, develop active participation in culture and use art as a space for dialogue and reflection on contemporary social challenges.

The show addresses the topic of mental health, emotional awareness and building mental resilience, responding to the needs of the audience functioning in a reality marked by stress, uncertainty and the fast pace of life.

“Do not be afraid” is a play about love, loneliness and the courage to start over. The play “Do not be afraid” does not give ready-made answers, but opens up space for a conversation about relationships, feelings and modern relationships. It is a lyrical-satirical story maintained in a light, humorous tone, enriched with poetry. The protagonist of the play, Edgar (in this role Arakadiusz Gołębiowski), is looking for his ideal — sometimes even idealistic — muse, life partner. He ends up in the office of psychologist Katarzyna (Monika Lecińska), where she begins a subtle and at times comic attempt to understand the genesis of infatuation — that first, elusive impulse when we meet another person. “Fear Not” is a reflective yet humorous portrait of lonely people trying to change their destiny—and a warning of how unpredictable the consequences can sometimes be. Costumes by Kate Zee (Katarzyna Żmuda-Trzebiatowska) add colour and character to the show.

ADMISSION IS FREE!

The production of the show is the Municipal Cultural Centre in Legionowo and is co-financed by the Mazowieckie Voivodship Self-Government within the framework of the “Strategy for the Development of Culture in the Mazowieckie Voivodship”.
