His father died during the Soviet invasion of Poland,〔 when he was the commander of the 7-th Lubelski Cavalry Regiment. After World War II his family moved to Łódź. There he attended a theater school associated with the National Film School in Łódź. Next he moved to Kraków where he begun studies in history of art at the Jagiellonian University.〔〔 There, at the age of 26, in 1956 he organized student club which, in time, became Piwnica pod Baranami, with its first performance in December that year.〔〔 Until his death, he would be the leading member of Piwnica.〔 It became the most popular intellectual cabaret in postwar Poland, and one of the symbols of Kraków.〔 Although it was not primarily a political humor group,〔 coming in the wake of the liberalization of Polish October, the Piwnica cabaret became famous for its satirical criticism of the People's Republic of Poland communist regime.〔 Polish magazine Przekrój wrote that "For 41 years () and his cabaret persuaded us that, despite the system, we had come into this world for happiness and joy.".〔 His attitude to authority was rebellious through his life; he often taunted censors present in the audience.〔 During the martial law in Poland of 1981 he was accused by the authorities of inciting a riot by his simple presence; in response, he set the official document accusing him of the charges to music, as he later did with the one lifting the charges.〔 Similarly, he had a disdainful attitude towards money;〔 there was a time he was homeless and slept on a park bench.〔 In addition to cabaret activity, Skrzynecki organized various events, fresh air performances, and famous parties, gathering top Polish artists and actors.〔 He played in several movies: ''Kalosze szczęścia'', ''Aria dla atlety'', ''Sukcesja'', ''Epitafium dla Barbary Radziwiłłówny'', ''Przewodnik'', ''Piwnica pod Baranami Piotra Skrzyneckiego'', ''Rozmowy z Piotrem''.〔 He wrote the script for the ''Panowie na złotych sznurkach'' movie, which he directed.〔 In his final years he has been suffering from cancer.〔 He died on 27 April 1997 in Kraków.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Piotr Skrzynecki」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
