The project will be inaugurated by an open-air performance at Krakow’s Bohaterów Getta Square (new media theme) created and directed by Jerzy Zoń.

As part of the project, we will realise and present performances form Poland and abroad, oscillating around four leading theatre forms and accompanying artistic workshops.

In partnership with the Norwegian institution Newschool, we will create innovative workshop syllabuses based on the methodology of informal education founded on the idea of “edutainment” – learning through entertainment. We want to combine the skills of instructors, who have the necessary knowledge to convey content, with the ideas and tools used by Newschool educators. During seminars, the Newschool educators and our instructors will prepare detailed workshop outlines.

Within the project, we will also attempt to take the workshops outside the KTO Theatre’s space. The KTO Theatre is known as Theatre on the Road – we will carry out activities outside of the city of Krakow, presenting theatre performances and workshops referring to the theatre of the roots and theatre without words in areas with limited access to the cultural offer. We endeavour to bring cultural diversity and offer joint activities to their inhabitants of those areas.

The project will expand the educational and artistic offer of the KTO Theatre, supporting the revitalisation of the Podgórze district and increasing the cultural potential of Krakow and other areas included in the project.
