The creative torment of God who created the world; shepherds going to Bethlehem via Wieliczka and Skalmierz; Herod trying to bribe death with positions in his administration... All these are folk ideas about sacred history from Old Polish nativity scenes. Often considered naive or downright primitive, they are surprisingly accurate and true, and are a testament to the thought and spirit of our ancestors — their piety and frivolity, their inner fervor and common sense, seriousness and wit. Where do sacrum and profane mix with such grace? Only in the nativity scene!

The Theatre of Polish Classics invites you to caroling together, to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Polish holidays, to laugh together, but also to reflect on the state of our community. Musical setting prepared by the outstanding instrumentalist Maria Pomianowska.

“Thank you for the Christmas carol, we wish you good luck this New Year!”
