What is The Pianist about?

The Pianist tells the remarkable true story of Władysław Szpilman, a celebrated Polish-Jewish pianist and composer whose life was transformed by the Nazi occupation of Warsaw during the Second World War.

From the vibrant cultural life of pre-war Warsaw to the devastation of the Holocaust, audiences follow Szpilman's journey as he fights to survive against unimaginable odds. Throughout his story, music becomes a powerful connection to hope, identity and humanity.

For the first time on stage, Szpilman's own compositions take centre stage, brought to life through beautiful new orchestrations. Performed by a talented cast of actor-musicians, the production captures both the richness of Warsaw's artistic community and the strength of those who endured one of history's darkest periods.
