HISTORY OF “SZOPKA Z TARY” (‘NATIVITY PLAY OF THARA’)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 1905 Antonii Korona was exiled to Siberia. After three years of hard labor, he settled in Tara by the river Irtysh. In 1908, his wife with two children, Maria and Antoni joined him. The life of the Korona family and Polish deportees revolved around the chapel, in which, among others, there was a Polish nursery. There, Mr. Sta\u0144czyk and Mr. Pomianowski taught Polish children. This chapel also hosted a nativity scene played with puppets in a boxed stage. In the fall of 1920, the Korona family was forced to leave Tara and in February 1921 they reached Garwolin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The manuscript of “Szopka z Tary” (‘Nativity Play of Thara’) was handwritten by Maria Gniedziuk and dictated by Mr. Sta\u0144czyk. Maria gave the manuscript to Mr. Andrzej \u017bak, from whom the Sybir Memorial Museum received the gift. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under these exceptional circumstances, the unusual exhibit was presented for the first time during the New Year’s meeting. Recitation of fragments of \u201cSzopka z Tary\u201d (‘Nativity Play of Thara’) was accompanied by a presentation of photos of the deportees deported by the Irtysh river. During the meeting, Tadeusz Chwied\u017a \u2014 the Chairman of the Bialystok Branch of the Sybiraks\u2019 Association shared his memories of the Christmas Eve in exile: “We shared a little bread, saved and hidden by my mother…”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lines of the legionnaire (read by M. Tyszkiewicz):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
