Empty City

Costume design and set design cooperation for the play “Empty City” in Modrzejewska Theatre in Legnica directed by Weronika Maria Kuśmider (premiere 8.05.2022)

“In a deserted city, two brothers meet, deserting two hostile armies. They haven’t seen each other in years. Preparing to die in the morning, they wander the streets of a ghost town, talk about their bygone lifes, and play various roles. We don’t know if they are telling themselves the truth, we don’t even know if they are real at all. They play a game with each other and with the audience, on their last night on earth.”

Director: Weronika Maria Kuśmider
