Theaters in Krakow 

Krakow Theater 

Krakow features prominently on the theater map of Europe. Its legendary Narodowy Stary Teatr (National Old Theater) counts among the continent’s best companies of players. Like most Krakow repertory theaters it runs several playhouses of varied capacity including its sizable main venue in the 200-year-old theater building, Poland’s oldest, at 1 Jagielonska street. It has a formidable local competitor in the Teatr Slowackiego theater whose grand edifice of 1893 at the Sw. Ducha Pl. doubles as an opera house. 

Krakow’s other repertory companies are the Teatr Bagatela theater, 6 Karmelicka street at Krupnicza street, the Scena STU theater at 16 Krasinskiego street in the downtown area, and the Teatr Ludowy theater in the os. Teatralne residential quarter of the largely industrial district of Nowa Huta. There is also the Teatr Groteska theater at 2 Skarbowa street that specializes in the puppet and mask productions for children. New arrivals with fixed addresses and steady stage productions are the Teatr Laznia Nowa theater at 25 Os. Szkolne, the Teatr KTO theater at 8 Gzymsikow street, and the Teatr Nowy theater at 21 Gazowa street. 

In addition to the above-mentioned established temples of dramatic art Krakow boast an array of independent ventures that comprise a fairly lively and diverse off scene. And Krakow’s famous Panstwowa Wyzsza Szkola Teatralna (Higher State Theater School) is a force in its own right. For one thing, every year it dispatches a new contingent of actors and directors who before soon tend to occupy the center stage all over the country. For another, productions at the School’s two playhouses, featuring students but staged by the best Polish directors, often receive rave reviews.
