The ETTC began as a small fundacja 10 years ago with one simple purpose: to share English culture and entertainment in Poland. From day one, our heart has been in working with young people, nurturing new actors, and creating unforgettable experiences for audiences.

Our very first productions were a heartfelt drama A Date to Remember, and a sparkling comedy, The Dinner Party Twist. They set the tone for everything we’ve done since: bold storytelling, professional performance, and a love for connecting directly with audiences.

Since then, we’ve toured across Poland, leading workshops and performing in Warsaw, Katowice, Tarnów, Gliwice, Kraków, and beyond. We’ve showcased a play at an international festival in Egypt, and we’re preparing to take our work to even more stages at home and abroad.

Nurturing New Talent

Over the past decade, we’ve worked with more than 100 actors. Many were stepping onto a professional stage for the very first time, and we take great pride in their growth. We’ve even helped two of our performers gain entry to prestigious drama schools in London – a testament to the quality of work and dedication they developed here.

For us, theatre is about more than performance – it’s about opportunity, growth, and community.

Monologue Slam – A Stage for Everyone

To connect and empower even more people, we created Monologue Slam, a fast-paced and industry-focused acting competition open to everyone in Poland. Participants receive professional coaching, perform work we provide, and get direct feedback from casting directors, producers, and industry insiders from London and Los Angeles.

It’s an experience unlike anything else in the country – a true launchpad for aspiring talent.

Looking Ahead

This autumn promises an exciting line-up:

• Slam25 – our next Monologue Slam
• A brand-new play by Phillip Barron
• A Christmas Carol – our own take on the classic

And in the background, our growing company of actors continues to rehearse, create, and collaborate on future projects.

Driven by Passion

As a non-profit organisation, every one of us works from the heart. Our reward is in the laughter, applause, and heartfelt thanks of audiences and participants. We’ve received occasional city grants, but most of our work is funded through performances, workshops, and the generosity of people who believe in what we do.

If you share our passion for theatre and want to help us bring it to more people, we’d love to hear from you – whether as an audience member, a performer, a partner, or a sponsor.

Because in the end, theatre is only alive when it’s shared – and we can’t wait to share it with you.
