LIVING SPACE THEATRE
Living Space Theatre was founded in 2016 by graduates of the National Academy of Theater Arts in Krakow. As a nomadic theater, we produce performances in various places and with different artists. We are focused on working with the body and imagination, which are effective tools for us in the creative process. Our main goal is to produce original dance and physical theater performances, as well as organizing artistic workshops, festivals and exhibitions.
Since the beginning, we have cooperated with artists and organizations from the USA, China, South Korea, Japan, Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands and Bulgaria (presenting performances or organizing workshops). We participated, among others in: Competition for the Staging of Old Works of Polish Literature “Living Classics”, Polish Dance Network 2019, European Capital of Culture 2019 in Plovdiv, XIV International Gombrowicz Festival, BalletOffFestiwal, Kontrapunkt Festival, AgitAgueda Festival, T’Danse – Danse et Technologie Festival, Busan International Performing Arts Festival, Vth ITI Dance Symposium and others.
PRINCIPAL OBJECTIVES OF THE LIVING SPACE THEATRE
- We, human beings, live in one global space and we need to be responsible and take care of the life around. Through our performances we want to raise voice about actual social issues, tolerance and human rights.
- By theatre events, space between people becomes vivid and hence we want to create a real meeting among actors and the audience.
- We bring theatre life to various spaces that can become alive though the action.
- For us human body is the living space itself, therefore we enable the body to express itself through movement and dance.
- Living Space Theatre is a laboratory space within which we develop our artistic approach as well as teaching and therapeutic work.
