The California-based Transversal Theater Company returned to Poland for its third tour in four years, announced Cultural Attaché James Wolfe. The company performed its new musical, Lumping in Fargo, written by Bryan Reynolds and composer Michael Hooker, at Teatr Rozrywki in Chorzow on July 30 and the Gdańsk International Shakespeare Festival on August 8 and 9 at the Teatr Wybrzeże Malarnia. Their offbeat production played to a packed house in their Gdansk appearances. In 2005, they brought their production of Reynolds’ play Woof, Daddy to Rampa-Teatr Na Targówku in Warsaw, Teatr Polski-Malarnia in Poznan, and Teatr Kana in Szczecin. Last year they performed Blue Shade, also written by resident playwright Reynolds, at Teatr Lalek in Wrocław, Teatr Modjeska in Legnica, and Teatr 77 in Łódź.
