One of Poland's most inventive theatre directors. Born on May 26th 1962.
After studying history, Romance languages and philosophy at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Warlikowski left in 1983 for Paris, where he attended a seminar on Classical theatre at the École Pratique des Hautes Études and studied philosophy and French language and literature at the Sorbonne.
In 1989 he returned to Poland and passed the entrance exams for the Theatre Directing Department of the State Higher School of Theatre in Kraków, where he studied under Krystian Lupa.
Everyone should meet someone like him as early as possible in their life - Warlikowski says of his mentor. - His mind has been shaped by a different set of readings and a different generational experience.
