European theatre was born in antiquity but forgotten after the fall of Rome. It had to be re-born. This happened in medieval monasteries. The theatre of modern Europe began with Anglo-Saxon monks, die-hard opponents of pagan spectacles and pleasures and – whatever they meant by it – of “ancient theatre”. 15–19 March (Tue–Sat) Na Grobli Studio, 30/32 Na Grobli Street Laboratory SUN KARAWANA The School of Rena Mirecka Contact: justyna@grotowski-institute.art.pl 20 March–20 April Brzezinka Residence of the Laboratorio Permanente di Ricerca sull’Arte dell’Attore 24 March (Thu), 6 pm Grotowski Institute, 27 Rynek-Ratusz

The protagonist is a young boy from a poor family who earns a living playing music at weddings. He falls in love with the daughter of a rich Turkish merchant and finds his love reciprocated.
