Rusza Festiwal ‘Made In Poland’ 2011!
14 maja – 25 czerwca

Z ogromną przyjemnością chcielibyśmy zaprosić Cię na tegoroczną edycję festiwalu promującego Polskę i inspirowanego polską kulturą Made in Poland. W tym roku będziemy starali odciągnąć Cię od szarości dnia codziennego i przeniesiemy w inne rzeczywistości. Daj się nam porwać!

Festiwal zaczynamy od występu polskiego kabaretu Limo – zabawny komentarz do rzeczywistości. Gwarantujemy zrywanie boków i przecieranie oczu z niedowierzania. Mnóstwo dobrej zabawy!
Występ Kabaretu już za 2 tygodnie w sobotę 14 maja o 19.00 , The Space (Newcastle College).

Razem z nami będziecie mogli świetować Dzień Dziecka w Newcastle Exhibition Park. Będą gry i zabawy dla wszystkich grup wiekowych oraz przekąski, napoje i słodycze ufundowane przez sklepy: Malgosia’s, European Food i Groszek. Planujemy rozłożenie namiotu – zapraszamy więc bez względu na pogodę! Start już 28 maja o 12.00.

W ramach festiwalu zaprezentujemy młode talenty polskiego kina. Krótkie filmy: ‘Twist and Blood’ i ‘Ciemnego pokoju nie trzeba się bać’ reż. Kuba Czekaj oraz dokument: ‘Warszawa do wzięcia” reż. Karolina Bielawska i Julia Ruszkiewicz
Uwaga! Zaprosiliśmy reżysera krótkich filmów Kubę Czekaja na spotkanie z widzami. Nieczęsta okazja na rozmowę z twórcą młodego kina. Tego nie można przegapić! Pokazy - 8 czerwca o 18.00 w kinie Tyneside.

W tym roku nie zabraknie wieczoru poświęconego sztuce. 19 czerwca zapraszamy na wystawę prac lokalnych polskich artystów: Małgorzaty Chałupki, Jadwigi Jasinek, Marcina Rewedy, Artura Burchardta and Tymoteusza Sułka.
Pozwól przenieść się do krainy słowa. W ten sam wieczór odbędzie się czytanie poezji przez członków grupy PoEzja Londyn. Impreza odbędzie się w the Cloister Cafe, w niedzielę 19 maja od 18.00.

Jednym z najbardziej emocjonujących wydarzeń tegoroczej edycji festiwalu będzie koncert Kapeli ze Wsi Warszawa w The Sage Gateshead 25 czerwca. Folkowa grupa, której muzyka jest określana jako „harcorowa muzyka folkowa”, „bio-techno” czy „polski rock folkowy”. Grupa powstała, żeby zachować tradycyjne polskie piosenki folkowe, ale muzycy nie stronią od reggae, indyjskiego raga, szwedzkiej polki, rocka, hip-hopu czy bluesa. Uczta dla ucha!
Po więcej szczegółów zapraszamy na stronę www.madeinpolandfestival.co.uk i na strony naszych partnerów. Prosimy przekazać to zaproszenie Waszym przyjaciołom i każdemu, kto może być zainteresowany.

Do zobaczenia na imprezach!
