Texts of Ignacy Nikorowicz (1866-1951), the Polish lyrist, were used to create full of jokes and humour, lightful performance about - not so trivial - hesitations of Newly-weds during the wedding night and about further traps lying in wait for Bride and Groom in their everyday life. Love, marriage, boreness of commonplace things, lure of unfaithfulness in half-serious tonation and 20th Century's costume but still so universal. Interesting form based on a convention of actors playing with their photography-puppets gives remarkable quotation marks to well-known matters.
