The Zbigniew Raszewski Theatre Institute started publishing the results of extensive research on theatre life in Poland. For many months, seven interdisciplinary research teams have been observing changes in Polish theatre. As a result, a series of unique reports were created, multilaterally analysing the effects of the pandemic on the entire theatre ecosystem, from theatre institutions and organisations to their employees, artists, and audiences.
Why did the Institute examine the Polish theatre in the pandemic?
The pandemic showed the fragility of the whole system.
Currently, I am trying to focus my actions and professional plans on survival.
Nothing will be the same again
