Many of us were planning to see the Short Waves Festival scheduled to begin on March 17. All we know at the moment is that it has been moved to August. Where then do we find short films? My personal recommendation is to visit the Omeleto channel on YouTube.
Current situation made us realize what phenomenon (not fully definable) is music performed live. Thousands of music institutions' visitors, including Poznan Philharmonic will lack this experience in the nearest future (how long exactly?).
The coronavirus plight has confined many people to their homes. Schools have closed, entertainment, cultural and sporting events got cancelled, and many people have been forced to work remotely... To make this time of imposed isolation a little more pleasurable and show that culture is always within your reach, we have enlisted the help of our authors to offer suggestions on how to bring culture into your leisure time. First up, we are going to hear from Patryk Szczechowiak with his cinematic recommendations.
Over 80 events, 250 films screened in several locations and 100 international guests in just 6 days. Such is the promise of the 12th edition of the Short Waves Festival scheduled to begin on 17 March.
Note! As per recommendation of the Mayor of Poznań regarding the threat posed by the spread of the coronavirus, the majority of cultural events scheduled for March, April and May 2020 will either be cancelled or postponed to a later date

Choreomania and social dancing are two concepts and phenomena that form the foundation of the latest play of the Polish Dance Theatre. Choreographed by Marta Ziółek, "Trucizna" ("Poison") is scheduled to premiere on 25 February at the Zamek Cultural Centre.
The exhibition of posters by Boris Bućan in the Arsenal Gallery is one of the first solo shows of the work of this Croatian artist to be held in Poland. While a dozen plus works by the artist were originally announced, only some of them will need up on view for reasons beyond the Gallery's control. Nevertheless, the few posters that are expected to come will undoubtedly make the retrospective well worth a visit.
This time it wasn't the tabloids that broke the news of the legendary womaniser's imminent arrival in Poznań. The rumour had been circulating for a while on culture websites and in culture magazines, electrifying Poznań residents. Ladies and gentlemen, I am now pleased to confirm officially: Don Juan is soon coming to the Wielki (Grand) Theatre.
