The Chairman's Ear
The Chairman's Ear is a Polish political satire web series broadcast since 9 January 2017 on YouTube, and since 15 February 2017 on Showmax. It is created by Robert Górski, the lead member of the Kabaret Moralnego Niepokoju.Plot
The series follows the chairman of the ruling political party in Poland. The narrative takes place primarily in his office where, joined by his assistant Mariusz, he hosts numerous visitors, including government officials and other public office holders. While Mr Chairman does not hold any elected office himself, it is clear that key political decisions are made in this office, and not in the Chancellery of the Prime Minister. The plot is deeply rooted in contemporary Polish politics, with each character having a real-life counterpart, with whom they share first names. The titular character of Mr Chairman is based on Jarosław Kaczyński, the leader of the governing Law and Justice party.
The Chairman's Ear is a continuation of a series of cabaret scenes named Government meeting in which Robert Górski and other cabaret artists impersonated the members of the Civic Platform and the Polish People's Party.Cast
