Overview

Startling discontinuities and surprises erupt throughout these avant-garde landscapes by Poland's outstanding modern dramatist where duchesses and policemen, gangsters and surrealist painters, psychiatrists and locomotive engineers wander in and out, kill one another, and carry on philosophical conversations at the same time.

When a small band of outcasts and super villains hijack a locomotive engine, they determine to race it full-throttle into an oncoming train in order to experience the very Mystery of Existence, but will their high-speed adventure send them headlong into another dimension, or are they only heading for disaster?  In a world full of disguises where nothing is what it seems and people change identities at the drop of a hat – who and what will survive the ultimate judgment?     

Combining the drama and thrill of pulp fiction and early cinema with the sensuality and suspense of the tango, The Crazy Locomotive will have audiences on the edge of their seats.
