WINDOW - CLOSE ENCOUNTERS: VOICES OF THE KANA
This time (throughout 2019) within the framework of OKNA we will share with you our own experience – the experience of the team, which sets directions, themes, areas and forms appearing on the stage of the Kana Theatre. Most of them the audience know from individual events, yet none of them is accidental: they are part of the larger entity and a part of the path we walk together.
Most of us work in the Kana Theatre at least a dozen or so years. The Kana (counting from the first production directed by Zygmunt Duczyński) is now forty years old. Each of us grew up, matured and learned theatre in Kana. Each of us – especially when our leader deceased – made his/her own individual decision to create it continuously.
Our present identity – everything we do at the moment – is the resultant of who we are, what we are seek, what questions we ask ourselves. It is also part of the process that we have trusted that it is becoming. For many years we have learned from the guests of OKNA – we invited those who were interesting to us, who showed us the multiplicity of paths. Now we feel that it is worth checking what happened to us all (in all of us) over the years. This year’s OKNO will therefore be devoted to Voices of the Kana. We will learn from each other.
Through meetings, presentations, workshops and screenings, we will try to present four most important thematic lines defining the artistic and program directions and choices of artists associated with the Kana Theatre Centre: the Line of Performances, the Line of Document, the Socio-Artistic Line and the Line "Around Tradition".
