Summary/Abstract: Julia Lizurek reviews the play King Maciuś I directed by Dagmara Żabska (Figur Theater in Krakow, premiere: 28.11.2014). The author notes that this shadow play for children is a tale of childhood loneliness and the need for change that it can bring. Lizurek praises both the formal execution of the play and its dramaturgical construction. However, she criticizes the fairy-tale aura of the performance and the feel-good finale, suggesting that the seriousness in staging the issue was not allowed to sufficiently resound.
