The eighth edition of Poznań Half Price is upon us! Just as in previous years, between May 2nd and 3rd, come and visit Poznań! A complete, updated list of our partners’ events is available below - and be sure to check our website often, as more events will appear shortly.
Teatr Nowy: Rynek Opowieści Jeżyckich (Jeżyce Story Market)
May 3rd, 2015, 12-4pm, Rynek Jeżycki in Poznań
- Duration of event: 4 hours
- Duration of a single story: 10-12 minutes
- Place: Rynek Jeżycki
- Admittance: free
This event is under the auspices of Jacek Jaśkowiak, the President of Poznań.
It is easy to comment on the public space from behind theater walls. But what will happen when the show breaks this safe barrier? In October of 2012, the acting troupe associated under the Jeżyce Story. Posłuchaj miasta! (“Jeżyce Story. Listen to the city”) have set out to conquer Rynek Jeżycki, with the aim of seeing exactly what will happen - and the reaction of Poznań residents exceeded their most daring expectations.
This is why, in May, we are setting out once again to meet the residents of one of Poznań’s most beautiful districts at its very heart, to say an official goodbye to the Jeżyce themed theater series. And most of all, to say thank you to all of you - for the inspiration, the support and for being the kindest of neighbours.
On May 3rd, the actors will once again take hold of the market stands from which - just like local hucksters - they will offer to the audience short but sweet and exciting stories of true residents of the world of Jeżyce - rebels, lodgers, players, ladies… Come one, come all!
