Stand-up Wałbrzych | Rafał Rutkowski in “Time Machine”

Rafał Rutkowski will present his fourth solo stand-up show, “Time Machine,” at Stara Kopalnia in Wałbrzych. The comedian travels through time, colliding past and present in his own style. The show takes place on 21.11.2026 at 17:00. The show asks whether things were better in the past or whether we are living in the best of times. Rutkowski also wonders whether artificial intelligence is humanity's hope or the beginning of its end, how much technology has changed us, whether we are smarter than our ancestors, and whether human stupidity is doing better than ever. The comedian also goes back to his childhood in the PRL (People's Republic of Poland) and recalls the absurdities of those years. The show includes, among other things: - the phenomenon of the Fiat 126p, - queues for mustard, - meat ration coupons, - parties during martial law, - the first trip “to the West,” - long-distance flirting with his Swedish wife, - the story of how he impressed a girl with aerobatics, - a tale about using contraception in Belarus.
