95 years of Poland’s oldest puppet theatre

“Gretel and Hansel” is the title of the children’s play we are going to produce to celebrate the 95th anniversary of the Baj Theatre –

Poland’s oldest puppet theatre. The performance will be based on the text “Gretel and Hansel” by the highly

acclaimed and often award-winning Canadian author Susanne Lebeau. The performance will be directed by Gervais Gaudreault – director,

founder and long-standing director of Le Carrousel theatre company in Quebec, Canada. Internationally acclaimed artists will prepare

a staging on the stage of the Baj that corresponds with the classic fairy tale we are all very familiar with. A story about attachment,

siblings, and bonding, but also a bit about jealousy and sometimes difficult family emotions – a touching tale that has already won the hearts

of many audiences around the world, in Poland, it will be presented for the first time.
