The school theatre group “Żaczek “ from Podstolice known for the interesting stagings of the Saint Kinga legends invites the public to see the new winter repertoire.
Yesterday the theatre performed with a spectacle entitled “My village – Podstolice” being the first part of the original regional education programme.The programme anticipates a series of stagings of events being a part of the ritual – liturgical year, from All Souls’ Day to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary holiday.
On the other hand, on 5th and 6th December the “Żaczek” ensemble shall be the Tourism and Culture Centre’s guest with a spectacle about Santa Claus.
There’s also another event worth reminding about– the very special fashion show presented to the parents and teachers by the “Żaczek” School Theatre Ensemble on the beginning of November.
The show was unusual, since – as Joanna Tebień, the guardian of the School Theatre Group recounts – the show’s “main characters” were not the cosmic creations made of silver llama,daring geometrical pattern dresses or the minimalist suits but the courtly gowns decorated with gold and jewells, silver chain-armour and royal cloaks.
The dancing turns, ballroom figures and princely grace were accompanied not by the modern sounds but by the ancient music, transporting the spectators into the world of medieval castles, the knights’ tournaments and the journeys through the kingdom.
The very special atmosphere was emphasized by the models’ props: the wide cloaks, soft furs, golden tapes and glittering jewels.
On the other hand the bellicose accent was introduced to the event by the male models “adorned” with sharp swords and dangerous arrows.The retinue was led by the princely pair: Krystyna Szybalska (the Saint Kinga) and Mateusz Maślanka (Kinga’s husband - Bolesław Wstydliwy).
The show organized by Joanna Tebień as a “thank you” for the Parents’ Council operating at the Saint Kinga Primary School of Podstolice, which co-financed renovation of the outfits.
The club functions since 1998 and some of the outfits desperately needed to be fixed.
The presented outfits were sewn and renovated by Małgorzata Ferlag, who for the last ten years has been working for the public good of the Podstolice Primary School thus assisting with her talent the children and youth of Podstolice.
