National Theater, Warsaw

National Theater, Warsaw

"Teatr Narodowy" (the National Theater) in Warsaw, Poland, was founded by that country's last monarch, Stanisław August Poniatowski, during the Polish Enlightenment, in 1765. Closed after the November 1830 Uprising, the National Theater was revived under the Second Polish Republic, in 1924.

The quality of the Theater's productions was at times adversely affected by government pressures under the Polish People's Republic (1945-1989).
