The Juliusz Słowacki Theatre in Krakow

Karolina Kazoń

In the beginning was the Word. And is was sung right away! According to my parents' accounts, at the age of six months, I presented them with a song titled ‘song’ with lyrics saying ‘song, song’. A bit later, my family could see me presenting poems by Brzechwa and Tuwim, which I quickly learned by heart while listening to my dad reading them. It all started for good when at the age of 10 I learned the script for Bareja’s film Miś [Teddy Bear], and I continued to present it at every possible opportunity.

I don't think any other job would give me so much happiness, but if I weren’t an actress, I would be a perfumer. My favorite smell? The smell of Juliusz Słowacki Theatre 's Grand Stage in Kraków.
