What happened to Mariolka from Paranienormalnych? Igor Kwiatkowski about the reasons for his decision
After 13 years of cooperation with Robert Motyka and Rafał Kadłucki and becoming remembered in the minds of Poles as one of the most recognizable cabarets, in 2017 Igor Kwiatkowski left the Paranienormalni cabaret. The reason was the decision to start a solo career. In an interview with Marzena Rogalska as part of the “Rogalska Show”, the comedian, when asked about playing the iconic character of Mariolka Krejzolka for so many years, revealed:
I didn’t abandon her. I broke up with her. I felt like I just outgrew the character. I felt like I was getting away with it, so to speak. […] and it would be useful to be such an authority for your own children. And what kind of authority could I be for my own children as Mariolka? Someone’s dad is a fireman or policeman, and I am […].
How many children does Igor Kwiatkowski have? “Dad jokes are a completely different level of humor”
Igor Kwiatkowski’s wife is Barbara Kwiatkowska. The couple had two children – Maja and Wiktor. It is in their company that the comedian spends every free moment. In the same interview with Marzena Rogalska, he confessed how his own children react to his jokes and sense of humor.
I remember there was a time. I think that’s still the case, although I think they’re more understanding now that I was actually trying to joke. It was ‘Dad, take it!’ I say take it, it’s ridiculous. I say, child, you know that people pay money, buy tickets for my father to see me, and my daughter, while eating dinner, says ‘I am surprised at them’.
