Kabaret Starszych Panów

The hosts and producers were Jerzy Wasowski and Jeremi Przybora, the two aging male Polish actors mentioned in the cabaret's name.

[2] The cabaret focused on two Bourgeoisie characters, Pan A and Pan B (Mr. A and Mr. B) "in dinner jackets, bowler hats, and with carnations in their button holes," who tried to find themselves in the new world of communist People's Republic of Poland, invariably poking fun at the changing reality.

During the late-night hours when the programme was aired, families and friends congregated in the houses where the show could be watched.

[7] Its popularity led to a film, starring the same characters, called Upał (1964), and directed by Kazimierz Kutz.

[8] The series has been called cult[9] and legendary;[10] when technology permitted, it has been rereleased in the VHS and more recently, CD and DVD formats, and repeats are still shown on Polish television channels.
