"Kmicic" is a musical inspired by "The Deluge" by Henryk Sienkiewicz. According to announcements, it is the first full-scale musical in Poland based on this novel, and the production is a premiere. The cast features artists from musical theater stages, including those associated with Teatr Muzyczny ROMA in Warsaw, the MOK Olkusz vocal ensemble led by Dorota Stachowicz-Mączka, and the Filharmonia Futura instrumental ensemble.
At the heart of the plot is Andrzej Kmicic, an impetuous nobleman, romantic, and unruly warrior. To restore his good name and win love, he must confront his own mistakes. His fate unfolds against the backdrop of dramatic events from Polish history, with themes of love, passion, honor, betrayal, and the struggle for redemption woven throughout.
The music is original and performed live. The production also features choreography, duels, costumes, scenography, and multimedia.
