THE RETURN OF THE KING Will Be Performed at Wroclawski Teatr Wspolczesny  Image

The Return of the King will be performed at Wroclawski Teatr Wspolczesny.

Michael Jackson is not dead! He is alive and well, somewhere in Poland! The corpse found at the Neverland estate, in fact, belonged to his doppelganger, fully responsible for all paedophile acts that the King of Pop is wrongly accused of. He decides to return to Poland - a country in which he was loved immeasurably - to fulfil the promise made to Poles in the 90s. The promise of creating a National Amusement Park that would save with entertainment the Polish nation divided dramatically into two tribes. At least that's what he says.

Meanwhile - unaware of anything - a poor family of unfulfilled Polish artists, decides to rob the property of an eccentric rich man. Of course, for artistic purposes, or rather artistic purposes and new born benefits...

This extremely funny and ambiguous story, by one of the greatest Polish playwrights - Michał Walczak, will be presented in an unprecedented convention in world theatre. Theatre comic convention.
