Poetic Obituaries: [Krzysztof Kolberger] remained with the National Theatre

company until 1982, and was later a member of the companies of Warsaw's Waspółczesny (1982-87) and Ateneum (1988-2000) Theatres.

He gained a great reputation for his interpretations of poetry by Goethe, T.S. Eliot, Polish Romantic poets, Czesław Miłosz and Karol Wojtyła--Pope John Paul II. During the days of mourning after the Pope's death, he read out the Pope's testament, which he later recalled as one of the most difficult challenges in his acting career.
