Niezwykłe ptaki

They saved people and cities. They heralded the coming of the day, the will of the gods, great changes and spring. They sent both blessings and curses. They carried messages, songs and dreams. For centuries, guided by free hearts, they have travelled thousands of miles through the skies. This will be the story of the winged wanderers by whom, people dared to sing, walk on two legs and dream of flying. The performance will be presented by the Word Catchers group, a mother-daughter duo from Gdańsk, officially active since 2010. They are long-time listeners and promoters of reviving the art of storytelling. As lovers of fairy tales and stories passed down from generation to generation, they frequent community centres, museums, neighbourhood houses, schools and libraries. They perform on theatre and café stages.
