This student of Warsaw’s theatre academy began her Thespian journey with a bang, on the national stage, playing Elena in Ewelina Marciniak’s much-lauded adaptation of “My Brilliant Friend” (standing in for Anna Paruszyńska-Czacka). She also joined the cast for “Threepenny Opera” by Ersan Mondtag as the sinister-but-sweet Polly and “The Fearless Love of Eve Adams” by Olga Ciężkowska, bringing her energy and freshness to the incredible story of Chawa Złoczewer – in both performances she was a stand-in for Alicja Wojnowska. She joined the ensemble of the National Stary Theatre for good in the 2025/2026 season, during which audiences could see her in a children’s play, “The Bankruptcy of Little Jack” by Maciej Podstawny and Dorota Kowalkowska, based on the famous novel by Janusz Korczak.

Bogumiła Bajor entered the world of art through music, which means that she now has a marvellous voice and also plays the violin. Her voice will certainly be familiar to younger viewers, as she has dubbed several films in her time. “In the brilliant song about larvae, Bogumiła Bajor shines as Butterfly, who is downright terrifying in how she works her psychopathic chuckle into her deftly melodious tunes,” Wiesław Kowalski (teatrdlawszystkich.eu) wrote about her in his review of “There Will Be No Alice,” directed by Bartosz Porczyk and Ewelina Adamska-Porczyk. The actor’s success in her Warsaw Theatre Academy diploma performance went hand-in-hand with her phenomenal big-screen debut. Owing to her “memorable” (Adriana Prodeus, kino.org.pl), subtle, and attentive role as young Iza in “The Woman from…” by Małgorzata Szumowska and Michał Englert, the actor had the chance to strut her stuff at the Film Festival in Venice.

“This is a Promethean profession,” she says with sparkling eyes. “Prometheus risked the wrath of the gods to help mortals, out of his love for mankind. In her work, an actor experiences incredible and often extreme emotions. Sometimes enormous pain and sadness, but also infinite joy. She decides to risk her vulnerability to explore all the shades of being human and pass this on to the viewers. This is a Promethean devotion and love for humanity.” That was what Vogue magazine wrote about this actor’s understanding of her work (Karolina Sulej, vogue.pl).
