Dance Pageant at the 27th International Outdoor Meetings with Art Ż’ART – 27 in Żary

On August 11, 2018, the Kiev Street Theater Team performed as part of the 27th edition of the International Outdoor Meetings with Art Ż’ART 27 at the Market Square in Żary. The festival, whose sources date back to the oldest street theater festival in Jelenia Góra and successfully led from the beginning by Roman Krzywotulski, director of the Żary Center of Culture, gave the Theatre a cordial and hospitable reception. The evening performance gathered crowds of viewers lively applauding our actors. This experience is an excellent confirmation of the thesis about the uniqueness of smaller centers, whose charm of residents stimulated by art, acting brings a lot of affection and mutual kindness. Thank you, Żary!
