Come and see the show on 25 September!
Is it acceptable to declare one’s love for the first person one encounters? Aleksander Fredro demonstrates that such an idea is a recipe for a series of amusing complications. His one-act comedy ‘Pierwsza lepsza’ (The First One) continues to entertain with its witty dialogue and irony.
Disappointed with the world of women, Mr Alfred decides to prove their frivolity. As a joke, he confesses his feelings to the first stranger he meets. However, he encounters a young widow who turns out to be smarter than he could have imagined. A game of appearances, intrigues and feelings begins, in which the man falls into his own trap.
Fredro, a master of comedic observation, humorously shows that disregarding other people and recklessly playing with love can backfire. Pierwsza lepsza (The First One That Comes Along) is a short but sophisticated play that has been reminding us for over two centuries that it is not worth playing with the heart, even as a joke.
The performance will take place on 25 September at 8 p.m. at the Śródmieście Cultural Centre in Białystok (ul. Kilińskiego 13, 3rd floor). Free tickets are required and can be collected from the Śródmieście Cultural Centre office from 17 September. 9:30.
