Reviews
- „The performance, based on an intriguing script by Justyna Litkowska and directed by Szymon Kaczmarek, resembles in its structure a lecture or a court trial, in which the prosecutor (the charismatic and energetic Maciej Litkowski) presents his theories and supposed version of events to the jury (played by the audience). (...) By spinning out various theories, Litkowski uncovers unknown facts from the lives of the three celebrities and combines them into a terrifyingly coherent whole”.– dziennikteatralny.pl
- „(...) Litkowski, starting from the sources, reconstructs the fiction. He does it brilliantly! He is matter-of-fact and trustworthy, his character displays an almost obsessive knowledge of the times he narrates, where this obsession, initially hardly noticeable in view of his impressive ability to reflect the style of the beatniks of the time, grows with the passage of time, grows out, leads him to become a kind of medium who performs a black mass for his idols”.– Adam Karol Drozdowski
