Teatr Rozrywki, Theatre company in Chorzów, Poland.
Teatr Rozrywki is a theater company in Chorzów, a city in the Silesian metropolitan area of southern Poland, with two separate stages of different sizes. The program covers musicals, plays, comedies, and family shows running throughout the year.
The theater was founded in 1985, created to bring entertainment-focused productions to the industrial Upper Silesia region. Over the following decades it expanded its program and grew into one of the most attended theaters in the area.
The Teatr Rozrywki has its own ballet company and orchestra, which is rare for a theater of this size outside a major city. This means productions here are often performed with live music and original choreography rather than touring packages.
The theater sits in central Chorzów, easily reached by public transport from nearby Katowice and Gliwice. Booking in advance is a good idea, especially for musicals and popular productions that tend to sell out.
The Teatr Rozrywki organizes an annual summer festival that includes outdoor performances, which is unusual for an indoor theater of this type in Poland. The open-air stage offers a different experience compared to the regular shows inside the building.
