Read more ...Legendary Polish mimic is coming to Castlebar
Fri, Sep 09, 2011
reneusz Krosny is undoubtedly the most famous and recognisable comic mime artist in Poland. He is loved by his audience in Poland. By his art, the clarity, and originality of form he has gained a large public all over the world. Ireneusz Krosny has created comic pantomime spectacles. The power of his miming comes from two sources. The first is his extraordinary creativity. His études describe both the history and present day aspects of public and social life. In his scenes, he does not avoid the absurd or abstraction. Each étude is completed with a surprising point, sending a message.
The second source is Krosny’s own original style. He has created his own original technique of miming, transparent like the elocution of the actor, making each movement understandable, without attracting attention to the technique itself. This gives the spectator the feeling that miming is an easy work. He does not use a makeup. In particular he does not whiten his face. Krosny always performs in a black,neutral costume. Don’t miss out on seeing this master at work in The Royal Theatre Castlebar on Sunday October 23. Tickets are €27 and include an after party after the show in the Memory Bar. Tickets are on sale now from Elart Club call 087 1764 169 or email [email protected] see www.facebook.com/ElArtClub for more details.
