"The Lehman Brothers" play in Warsaw hailed as 'delightful' and 'total theater'

Warsaw's Współczesny Theatre is presenting "Bracia Lehman" (The Lehman Brothers), a production described by critics as a "delightful" and a "total theater" experience, infused with a "pinch of madness."

Directed by Oskar Winiarski and based on Stefan Massini's work, the play has been lauded for its outstanding direction and superb acting. This new premiere is being hailed as a return to the theater's historical mission, which under its founder Erwin Axer, focused on introducing internationally recognized plays to Polish audiences while engaging with their local sensibilities.

“

Rarely does one get to use the term 'delightful' when writing about very good or even excellent performances, and that is exactly the case with Stefan Massini's 'Bracia Lehman' directed by Oskar Winiarski – the latest premiere at the Współczesny Theatre in Warsaw.

The production meets the criteria of significant cultural value through excellent direction and strong performances. It represents a high point for the theater, offering a deeply engaging and artistically rich experience for its patrons.

This is the kind of theater one can only dream of.
