The Juliusz Słowacki Theatre in Krakow

Karol Kubasiewicz

My neighbour worked at the theatre as a dressmaker. After school I always went to see her at the theatre, and played with everything that was there. Later, when I was 16 I had to decide where I wanted to go to high school. I knew that I wanted to be an actor, and that I wouldn't be able to do it in Będzin, so I left for Krakow, to a high school with a theatre programme, and I stayed here.
