History
[edit]The theatre's history dates back to 1918, when Marian Dąbrowski, publisher and editor of Kraków's "Ilustrowany Kurier Codzienny" (English: Illustrated Daily Courier, commonly known as IKC, also Ikac) initiated the creation of the stage. The building was designed by architect Janusz Zarzecki during 1918 - 1919, and its interior was designed by painter and decorator Henry Uziembło.[2] In 1926, due to financial difficulties[2] and increase in the popularity of the cinema,[3] the theatre was reclassified as a cinema. A fire that broke out the night of 6/7 April 1928 completely destroyed the interior. In 1938, the building was modernized and renamed "Scala". It became the most elegant cinema in Kraków.[2] Housed here during 1946 - 1948 was an intimate theatre. Since 1949 it has been home to the Państwowy Teatr Młodego Widza (English: State Theatre of the Young Viewer).[4] The Rozmaitości Theatre was established here in 1957. The theatre returned to being called Bagatela in 1970, and was dedicated to the memory of Tadeusz Boy-Żeleński in 1972.[5] The writer and doctor lived in a flat in the area for many years.[6]
Roman Polanski made his debut here as a young man.[6] The theatre was originally designed for children but nowadays shows musicals, comedies and other light entertainments suitable for families.[7]
