Planet Lem

Polish theatre company Teatr Biuro Podrózy became hugely popular in 2009 for their pay-for production of 'Macbeth' with stilt-walking witches, fire and motorbikes. They return this year under the 'I, Culture' umbrella (a showcase of Polish arts celebrating Poland's EU presidency) and National Theatre's free, outdoor series, Watch This Space. Inspired by the work of sci-fi writer Stanislaw Lem (author of 'Solaris') 'Planet Lem' promises a bizarre vision of the future, complete with humanoids, aliens and robots.
