Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz was one of Poland's cultural creators.
Spanning many media, pre-war Witkiewicz ended his life dramatically a
day after Stalin invaded Poland in 1939 but left a "witkacy" legacy and a
very odd thing happened after his death. Find out what that was as we
speak with Witkacy fan Kevin Hayes. Kevin also talks about his
experiences of working in theatre in Communist Poland and in free Poland
after 1989 and reflects on his hilarious Polish TV weather forecasts -
well, what else would you hire an Englishman to talk about? Kingsley
offers us his take on Poles in the press. George Matlock and Fine Art
Skupienski host. Hear again the first hour of the London Bridge show on ORLA.fm with Kevin here on REPLAY.
