A highly versatile artist, Stuhr was also a theatre, film and opera director, script writer and stand-up comedy star. He served for many years as rector of the Drama Academy in Kraków, his beloved hometown, and wrote several books, the last of which entitled "With the passage of time" is to appear in the coming months.
Kraków residents honoured Stuhr with loud applause for the last time as his urn was carried to be laid to rest in his family tomb at the Kraków's historic Rakowicki Cemetery
