25.11.1967 | W Teatrze Narodowym w Warszawie odbyła się premiera Dziadów w reżyserii Kazimierza Dejmka
Dziady w Teatrze Narodowym, w reżyserii Kazimierza Dejmka i ze scenografią Andrzeja Stopki. Przedstawienie zyskało wymiar polityczny, zaniepokojone jego odbiorem społecznym i antyradziecką wymową władze komunistyczne nakazały zdjęcie spektaklu z afisza. Decyzja spowodowała protesty, które zapoczątkowały wydarzenia Marca 1968. Główną rolę w przedstawieniu zagrał Gustaw Holoubek (Gustaw–Konrad), partnerowali mu m.in. Józef Duriasz (Ksiądz Piotr), Zdzisław Mrożewski (Senator), Kazimierz Opaliński (Guślarz), Barbara Rachwalska (Pani Rollison), Stanisław Zaczyk (Adolf), Ignacy Machowski (Doktor).
