LET'S MEET

 

We are a diverse group of people connected with CHOREA Theatre. We create the International Theatre Festival Retroperspektywy, which for us is an annual celebration of theatre - a direct meeting with the audience, an opportunity to be moved, delighted, reflective, but also to celebrate together.

 

On a daily basis we are artists, coordinators, producers, theatre educators, animators, co-creators of social-and-cultural projects. We run theatre workshops for various groups - from pre-schoolers, children, young people and students to seniors.

 

Do you want to get to know us better? Visit CHOREA Theatre's website: https://www.chorea.com.pl/en, or simply talk to us during Retroperspektywy!

 

 

IT'S US

 

This year's Retroperspektywy is created collectively.

 

 

PROGRAMME TEAM

 

Tomasz Rodowicz | originator, initiator of the festival

Founding father. He loves theatre with a fiery and unquenchable love. If you need to talk about the meaning of life and you like ontological discussions, he is an ideal interlocutor.

 

Ola Shaya | theatre, music and dance programme, events for children and young people, producer

One-woman-band. She knows what, where, how, with whom and for how much. She will provide both practical and factual information - and always with a smile on her face.

 

Małgorzata Lipczyńska | music and theatre programme

On stage - uncompromising and energetic. Off stage - warm, attentive and brilliant. She has a quicker-than-light retort and a talent for picking out the absurdities of everyday life like a radar. She is keen to see proposals for future editions, as long as they are not immoral…

 

Maja Caban | dance programme

She is all about movement, flow and harmony. During Retroperspektywy, she will take care of the highest level of dance performances and dance residencies.

 

 

ORGANISATION TEAM

 

Justyna Kasprzyk | financial coordination, cooperation with partners

Surgical precision in Excel, combined with extraordinary sensitivity in everyday life. Simply wonderful!

 

Marzena Wspaniała | accountancy

Here we have a person who will keep every contract. You can always count on her.

 

Zofia Kędra | festival office

Solid as few political systems can be. Carnet passes, tickets, invitations, repertoire, accommodation - she knows everything and does not hesitate to use this knowledge.

 

Joanna Filarska | box office

Intelligent and eloquent, and knows how to operate a cash register. She will sell a ticket, give change and recommend a performance.

 

Natalia Arabska | volunteering

Responsible for a group of people without whom it would be difficult for us to organise Retroperspektywy. If you want to join the noble group of volunteers - write to or call her.

 

Special task team | volunteers

An unusual phenomenon in the modern world - they do something because they want to. Always ready to act where others say “it can't be done”. They can solve any problem, plug any hole and relieve tension with a joke.

 

 

PRODUCERS' HUB

 

Magdalena Kamińska, Zuzanna Szczypek, Leon Jachimiak | young production team

The name in Polish (Hub Producencki) is partly English and partly Polish. It's a word-freak which conceals a simple idea - during our festival we want to pass on our own experience and knowledge in the field of event production to the younger generation. Welcome aboard!

 

 

PROMOTION AND COMMUNICATION TEAM

 

Wiktor Moraczewski | promotion, communication

Does the work of three people, the organisation of five, and promotes it all in such a way that no one is left uninformed.

 

Maja Szewczykowska | social media

Young, bold, uncompromising. What happens at Retroperspektywy... doesn't stay at Retroperspektywy! Maja will give you all the coverage.

 

Joanna Chmielecka | organisation and preparation of materials, website

In the performance she will act, or sing, or dance. Apart from that - a very decent girl. The mess cleans itself up when it sees her, which is exemplified by our website - concrete, aesthetic and clear. Click on it and feel free to find out more.

 

Robert Fontański | website

IT specialist. No website can keep any secret from him. What is more, he is patient and understanding. With a smile, calmly and clearly he will explain to even the most reluctant IT dilettante how to add or remove web tabs or edit the footer menu.

 

Patryk Hardziej | graphic design

Master graphic designer who can turn every pixel into a work of art.

 

Agnieszka Cytacka | photography

She reaches where the eye cannot see. The world becomes beautiful from her frames. You will be captured and delighted!

 

Rami Shaya | video

Master of moving images. He shoots, edits and fleshes out essence.

 

James Waygood | English proofreading

Our linguistic wizard who says “No problem!” & “Piece of cake!” every time he has to translate festival texts into English. The name doesn't lie - he has a really good way of translating.

 

Joanna Jędraszczyk | PJM interpreter

When she flashes and signs before your eyes, know that we care about accessibility for deaf people. It makes Retroperspektywy accessible to everyone, because communication should know no barriers.

 

 

TECHNICAL AND PRODUCTION TEAM

 

Maciej Kobalczyk | technical coordination 

Here it must be said briefly - this man knows what can be heard and seen. At the same time, he is an oasis of calm and modesty. He will always help and resolve problems. With a smile. A unique individual.

 

Tomasz Krukowski / Marcin Pajchert / Marcin Dobiś Dobijański | technical team

They know our place like the back of their hand, and are more familiar with technical and organisational matters than a teenager with TikTok.
