In the Solitude of Cotton Fields

January 5 – January 14, 2012


Co-Presented by The Public Theater’s Under the Radar Festival and La MaMa
Stefan Zeromski Theatre
Directed by Radosƚaw Rychcik (Poland)

Performed in Polish with English supertitles.

All songs are about love, and they’re all like wolves. Backed by live music from the Polish cult band Natural Born Chillers, this interpretation of late French playwright Bernard-Marie Koltès’s In the Solitude of Cotton Fields imagines a raw encounter between a Dealer and a Client with the swagger of an Eastern European punk-rock concert.

Last seen at UTR 2010 with Versus, Rychcik is emerging as one of the young directors to watch in international theater for his use of an intense acting technique and simple yet specific stage design.
