Polárka - Theatre for the young

(depends on the feeling not the age)

Polárka Theatre is a professional Brno theatre that came rose the being in 1999 from the former puppet theatre Jitřenka. The originality and magic of this theatre lies in the fact that its repertory focuses onto 2 streams: plays for children and the young as well as a rich programme for all the age groups.

In the field of children's plays we are trying to find contemporary original fairytales that are not so known to the public and we are also trying for a fresh, original, playful approach to the classical ones.

The programme for the young dates from the beginning of the season 2000/2001. It offers 3 basic types of programme: scenic reading, musical concerts, and theatre stagings, which form the mainstay of the evening programme. Last year we accompanied the three mentioned streams by the experimental workshop that takes place in the rehearsal room.

We have significant and maybe even unique co-operation with young theatre artists, especially performing academies graduates. Talented directors, visual artists, musicians and other artists gain the opportunity to measure their strengths, use their playfulness and imagination. Their original approach enriches the creation for children with a surprising novelty, astonishing colour scheme and also the so much needed freshness. Together with the young actor ensemble these artists make a kind of generation theatre, which, in many aspects, reminds many of the beginnings of the famous Brno Goose on The String theatre.
