Kamil Bujny (Teatrologia.info) noted that "during many scenes, sculptures and performers appear to the viewer merely as shadows; it's hard for us to distinguish what is an inanimate object and who is an actor."
Sodium light
In the performance, sodium lighting was used, which causes distortions of the seen colors. The world of the mourning family is deprived of color.
Award
Aleksandr Prowaliński was honored by Tomasz Domagała in the TEATR Magazine for the best light direction in the 2022/2023 season.
