"In the Middle of the City" is a performance by Teatr Piccolo in Łódź designed for organized groups. The show takes place on October 30, 2026 at 10:00 AM. The protagonist stands between the voices of an Angel and a Devil, Good and Evil, torn apart, tempted and manipulated. The performance combines puppetry with live acting. Through this form, it symbolically and powerfully tells the story of rejection, first contact with addiction, and death.
The aim of the performance is to evoke emotions and help viewers identify with the characters. The show is meant to inspire compassion, rebellion, desire for change, and the urge to help.
