Wołłejko, Magdalena vel Meggie W. Wrightt

When writing for Television, Magdalena Wołłejko used the pseudonym Maciej Pisz, while on the theatrical posters she appears as the mysterious Englishwoman, Meggie W. Wrightt. The experience gained on stage and upbringing in a family with a rich acting tradition allowed the author to develop an incredible sensitivity to dialogue.

Theatre and film actress, author of plays, for many years associated with Warsaw theatres, specializing in comedy plays and farces (Kwadrat, Komedia, Na Woli Theatre/Dramatic Theatre, Capitol, Syrena). She comes from a family with long acting traditions. In 1978 she graduated from Warsaw's PWST and was hired by Edward Dziewoński at the Kwadrat Theatre, where she performed in several farces. She also played in several dozen feature films. She has worked with many directors, but created her best performances in Stanisław Różewicz's cinema and television pictures. In 1998 she wrote her first text The Third King, which was produced by Jan Kidawa-Błoński for the TVP1 television channel. At the same time, she established a literary collaboration with Gambit Production, for which she wrote over a dozen scripts for the TV series "Taksówka Jedynki". Since then she has been using her stage, comedy experience to write TV scripts, films, monologues, song lyrics and, above all, theatrical plays. In 2003 the cult comedy Klub Hipochondryków (Hypochondriacs' Club) premiered. In 2012, a book entitled The Merry Plays, or Hypochondriacs and the Abandoned - with lyrics and photos from her three comedies, staged in Warsaw and Sydney, was published.
