PROJECT

From 6 until 12 April and from 4 until 10 May 2015 Polish dancer and choreographer Kinga Jaczewska will be working in our study on the research for her new performance PRL.

PRL (Polish Random Leisures) takes its inspiration from an intriguing and turbulent phase of Polish history between 1952 and 1989: a period marked by contradictions and known as the communist era of the Polish People’s Republic. PRL investigates how this political system – and more precisely its attitude towards its citizens – has influenced and resulted in today’s globalized, capitalistic society. Kinga Jaczewska’s aim is to share her (personal) history – ranging from family anecdotes to the general political context of the past decades – with the audience, on a personal as well as universal level. She wants to connect the communist culture and its human interrelations with her individual background rooted in both communist and capitalistic systems.
