Timeline

2009

In Autumn 2008, Pastor came to Poland to discuss restaging his ballet Tristan, in Warsaw’s Teatr Wielki. Production to the music of Richard Wagner was originally created for the Royal Swedish Ballet. At the time, Waldemar Dąbrowski – Teatr Wielki’s general director, offered Pastor to take over the direction of the ballet in Warsaw. Being interested in this proposal, Pastor decided to return to Poland after 26 years of emigration, setting the conditions of ballet’s artistic independence and autonomic operating conditions in the theatre structure, which would be analogous to other major ballet companies worldwide. Thanks to the efforts of director Dąbrowski, Minister of Culture and National Heritage Bogdan Zdrojewski agreed to appropriate changes in the theater’s by-law. On 18 March 2009 Pastor took over the position of director of the ballet of Warsaw’s Teatr Wielki, and in the same year by the decision of Minister Zdrojewski on 29 April it was separated in the structure of the theatre as Polish National Ballet and became equal to Polish National Opera.
