Scenography, light, video

The project involved designing an intimate set alongside lighting and video-projection direction, together forming an immersive visual system fully integrated with the stage.

By fusing the set with multimedia elements, the visual layer deepens the sense of presence and keeps the focus on the performer, shaping one coherent theatrical experience.

“Wiera Gran is staged on the smallest of the Polski Theatre's stages — what I like to call, with my usual spite, the broom cupboard. All the more credit, then, to Patrycja Superczyńska and Maciej Czuchryta — the set, lighting and video team — for wringing everything they possibly could out of this theatrical bedsit. Bravo.”— Mike Urbaniak
