THEATRE ROSA was active in Poznań from 2009–11. It was a space for searching for identification with one’s self. This search was based on acting craft understood as the ability to discover creative motivation within oneself and to use basic tools: the body, musicality, and the imagination. In the work we tried to make essential values – presence, precision, attentiveness, and hearing – become concrete.

It was an organic theatre where performances grew out of previous works, grew up and developed like animals or humans.
