The KTO Theatre formally follows the tradition of street theatre, which has let it develop a unique language of communication.
The KTO was started in 1977 by a group of students of the Jagiellonian University. In its pursuits, the theatre follows the tradition of street theatre, which has let it develop a unique language of communication, to a large extent based on the body and expression of the actor, and to a lesser degree on the spoken word. The KTO has participated in numerous prestigious festivals all over the world and in open air-events in France, Germany, and Norway. For many years, it has organised the ULICA International Street Theatre Festival.
