description:
(...) Imagine the Crusades unfolding in our kitchen. Or perhaps in our living room? Here and now. Poland. Łódź. A.D. 2019. The history of the Middle East blends with the present, intruding upon our everyday, mundane tasks and responsibilities.
Miron Białoszewski’s text, rich in humor and parodic references to the grandiose tones of Polish historical literature, becomes the subject of theatrical play. (…) Private, intimate spaces will transform into a battlefield of the Crusades.
The Crusades by Miron Białoszewski is a story of confusion, otherness, and suppressed individuality, all caught in the relentless gears of history. It is also an interpersonal game between men and women—one that, in a history and culture dominated by male narratives, demands recognition of women’s role in shaping the world’s past.
