THE
SUMMIT TIMESTHE
SUMMIT TIMESJan Machulski In Santa Monica Jan Machulski presented his play, "Niebezpieczne Zabawy" (Dangerous Play) on February 23, in Santa Monica,.
The spectacle involved a third person who, coincidentally and in need, entered a nearby house and yet shook the emotions and marriage relationship of the household. The main characters were performed by distinguished actor Jan Machulski, as jealous older husband; Agnieszka Zdunczyk, as wife; and Rafal Cieszynski, as the unwelcome visitor. At the end of the play the audience participated in dissolving the problem and discussed what went wrong in the marriage. A few humorous ideas came up from the spectators, giving a new end to the play. Tadeusz Podkanski, vice president of Modjeska Art and Culture Club, was invited by Machulski to enter the stage and perform his idea. Along with the main actors, Podkanski played out the new short end of the play. They were wonderful.
Jan Machulski was born in Lodz, Poland in 1928. He received a degree from the National Actor's University (PWSA) in Lodz in 1954, and then from the Theatrical National University (PWST) in Warsaw, a degree in directing.
