Pola Błasik actress

It all started with my first performance in kindergarten, when I led a group of girls in choreographies with umbrellas. Later there were school performances and summer concerts at home, when I opened our balcony, and I gave the first concerts with my microphone for our neighbours, while standing on a stool that served as a stage. Once my dramatic monologues delivered to the bathroom mirror were no longer sufficient, I understood that what was essential were the people I could be with and for.

Theatre proved to be a perfect solution.
