The Great Gatsby in Jurata

Jurata's jubilee celebrations were kept in the style of the beautiful 1920s, and their course and arrangement referred to the splendor of the past, so wonderfully described by Francis Scott Fitzgerald in the novel "The Great Gatsby" (ang. The Great Gatsby), filmed in 2013 by Baz Luhrmann, in the blockbuster of the same title.

This reference was not accidental, because the beginnings of Jurata date back to the interwar period and although the next "birthday" of the resort is counted from the first tourist season taking place here in 1931, the idea for creating a "Polish Palm Beach"Was born in the 1920s.

Guests invited to the closed sector and stage artists also applied dress code in the style of Big Gasby.

 

 

Exceptional guests and crowds of viewers

The ceremony gathered crowds of tourists who spent their time vacation in Jurata and without whom the celebration of the resort's 90th birthday would not have had such a strong tone.

Unfortunately, due to the limited space in which the gala was organized, only guests with personal invitations were allowed to enter the event, and the other viewers had to be content with the view from the distance.

This way of organizing the event was negatively received by the residents of Jurata and the tourists present at that time, whose participation in the event was severely limited. Discussions on this topic on the Internet do not stop, and people do not hide their indignation at the fact that they were not allowed to participate in the celebration of this important jubilee.

 

People who have been associated with Jurata for many years and who have love for this place, were invited to the ceremony. She took part in the ceremony Mrs. Danuta Kowalska - one of the oldest residents of Jurata and the daughter of one of the company's shareholders Jurata SA. The mayor of the Jastarnia commune could not be absent from the audience - Tiberius Narkowiczand also the director MOKSiR in Jastarnia - Marta Balicka, who were the organizers of the event.

The actor presented an extraordinary arrangement of well-known compositions from the second decade of the last century, and in his original musical collage he sang the greatest hits of those years, which were an integral part of the erstwhile dance parties organized on the Juracki pier in Cafe Casino  or fashionable Palomie. Songs could not be missing among them Eugene Bodo  "Sex appeal" and "I made an appointment with her on the ninth" and the world hit "Summertime” George Gershwin 

 

During the recital, they also appeared on stage Anna Iberszer - sound director, actress and dancer and Piotr Woźniak -  Argentine tango dancer and instructor who follows the rhythms of the song performed by Stockinger Mieczysław Fogg "Tango Milonga", presented a dance pattern, giving this part of the event extraordinary sensuality.

 

Not without coincidence, Anna Iberszer appeared in a beautiful dress from under the needle of the event organizer - Dorota Goldpoint.

 

During the performance, the artists were accompanied by a composer and a jazz pianist - Stefan Gąsieniec

The inner strength in Dorota Goldpoint's fashion show

The central part of the celebration of Jurata's ninetieth birthday was the fashion show of Dorota Goldpoint, known for creating outfits that emphasize female beauty and made of natural materials. This show was unique because it referred to the project "The Inner Power", aimed at supporting mature women, restoring authority and confronting public opinion with the inevitability of passing away.

To participate in the project "The Inner Power" famous women were invited, including the honorary ambassador - Irena Santor, as well as Grażyna Szapołowska, Katarzyna Grochola, Agata Młynarska, Anna Korcz, Alicja Węgorzewska-Whiskerd, Joanna Kurowska, Katarzyna Żak and Jolanta Fraszyńska.

The show stood out from other events of this type, as the Designer outfits were presented by non-professional models, most of whom made their debut on the catwalk.

 

The models were played by mature women, project ambassadors  "The Inner Power" and residents of Jurata, including: Grażyna Szapołowska with daughter - Katarzyna Jungowska and granddaughter - Karolina Matej, Beata Tadla, Jolanta Borowiec, Paulina Koziejowska and the headmaster of the junior high school in Jastarnica.

The celebration of the jubilee crowned the performance of the First Lady of the Polish music scene - Irena Santorwho sang the song "There are no more wild beaches" (text: Krzysztof Logan-Tomaszewski, mus. Ryszard Seremeta), which over the years became Jurata's informal "hymn".

Mrs. Irena officially said goodbye to the stage, but due to her great love for Jurata - after inviting Dorota Goldpoint, she agreed to perform again in such exceptional circumstances.

The singer joked, describing herself as Jurata's "peer" and adding: “… But what is 90 years for a young woman…?". At the same time, she promised to perform again at the next birthday of our wonderful town, which we are waiting for.
