The leitmotif / idea:

Entrée

The leitmotif of the 32nd ULICA was the interpenetration of two fascinating worlds, circus and street theatre, their common roots and mutual inspirations.

Arena

During the four-day carnival, the squares and streets of Krakow turned into various theatre mansions beaming with excitement and emotion. Actors, jugglers, dancers, mimes, clowns and puppeteers, tightrope walkers, illusionists and stilt walkers – every spectator could find their own favourite.

Grande Finale

All theatrical and circus themes presented during the Festival participated in the final outdoor performance Parade of Entertainers based on the script, with musical arrangement and direction by Jerzy Zoń.
