Tadeusz Różewicz's response to the crisis caused by the rapid development of civilization is the figure of the Old Woman. Her wisdom, irony and presence give relief and hope. So it is worth listening to her truth, which she utters like spells of ancient, close to the nature of knowledge. Thanks to it, perhaps, it will be possible to recover what the author describes as the dustbin of civilization, the dump of the world...

In her masterful monodrama, which premiered at STUDIO in 1988 and now returns in a refreshed form, Irena Jun has made the character of the Old Woman the whole cosmos of the spectacle. This is the feminine version of the old god, immortal and indestructible, rising at dawn when civilization dies, seeing cowardice and heroism, greatness and smallness in the right dimensions. An affectionate guide, drawing on the witch archetype rediscovered today. A person worth meeting and listening to — not only to discover how surprisingly current Tadeusz Różewicz's text sounds today.

The performance used a fragment of the video “How to play an old woman solo? Questions to the author.”
Idea, direction and camera: Piotr Lachmann
