Teatry i opera: Stare Polesie

Stare Polesie has four stages with entirely different characters - from a children's theatre, through a private dance venue, to an independent theatre and the Film School's student stage. This page shows which one suits whom.

A children's theatre and a dance venue

Teatr Pinokio has been running since 1945 and performs for audiences from infants to teenagers, from visual and puppet forms to poetic shows - a natural choice for a child's first visit to the theatre. Teatr V6 on Żeromskiego street has an entirely different character, a private stage for dance and contemporary circus, operating in the former Przedwiosnie cinema from the 1920s.

An independent stage and a student theatre

Teatr Szwalnia is an independent, close-contact stage with three halls, a gallery and a cafe, where performances often combine with concerts. Teatr Studyjny PWSFTViT belongs to the Łódź Film School and mainly shows diploma performances by acting students - a good option for viewers looking for theatre that experiments with form.
