‘Ballet about Coffee’to the music of J.S Bach falls within the tradition of ballets with fanciful and exotic subjects staged in the 17th and 18th centuries. Created on the basis of steps and figures of Baroque dance, as well as elements of the pantomime of the day, this humorous performance alludes to the fashion of drinking what was an original beverage at that time.

Chess, based on J. Kochanowski's peom, is a ballet and pantomime performance with music of the Polish, Italian and French Renaissance. The poem is presented to the audience through dance, pantomime and the spoken word. The ingenious and humorous text reveals the genuine feelings and emotions of the characters, while the vivid and dynamic plot provides ideal material for a performance based on Renaissance dance and pantomime movement.
