An extraordinary man and a great actor, who for his whole professional life was working for the Teatr Nowy in Poznań. He appeared in Poznań in 1970, shortly after graduating from the PWST (National Higher School of Theatre) in Warsaw, with a plan to stay just one season, because there was a place waiting fo him in the Warsaw Athenaeum and assistantship with Jan Świderski at the theatre school. He has over 100 theatre roles in his portfolio, performing in a many genres - from comedy to tragedy. He played, among others, with Izabella Cywińska, Janusz Nyczak, Waldemar Śmigasiewicz, Krzysztof Babicki, Janusz Wiśniewski and Piotr Kruszczyński. A meeting on the set "Third Part of the Night" (1971) with Andrzej Żuławski earned him the name "The Żuławski's actor". Yet his career suddenly slowed down: the second movie - "Devil" (1972) was censored and dissemination forbidden (the premiere took place only in 1988). The production of the third movie - "On the Silver Globe" (1976) - was stopped by the PRL authorities ... We called the meeting in Mosina "PICTURES FROM MEMORY" - this was the title of the  book about the actor, which was never written. The meeting will be filled with Michał Grudziński's memories from various stages of his life, including anecdotes, history and objects he has collected over many years. There will be a reason to laugh, but also a moment for reflection. A form of a small resume for his 75th birthday ...
