| Description |
Have you been to Ulica Krokodyli yet? It is a cobbled alley with iridescent, vivid streetlights. From peeling walls with patches of stains, through a pastel mist of neither illusion nor oblivion, the phantoms of deserted windows, worn-away shop-signs and Yiddish inscriptions fall over on passers-by. Was this what Bruno Schulz had in mind when he was writing Ulica Krokodyli, one of the pieces in his collection of stories, The Cinnamon Schops? Perhaps. It is enough to lower your head over your glass and close your eyes to see immediately the flickering shadows as they start dancing, to hear the echoes enchanted in the stone floor awake. Someone shuts the gateway with a thud. From a distant staircase comes the clamor of arguing traders. A low voice of traveling salesman booms in the narrow courtyards. The dark hallways and basement flats revive. A blackbird is whistling his song in a birdhouse. You feel a tickle in your nose as you smell fried onions and elder. You will not find Ulica Krokodyli on the map of Kazimierz, the Old Jewish District of Kraków. You have to find Szeroka street, near the Old Synagogue. All you have to do is to open the door to house No. 30, where there used to be a breadcrumbs manufacturing company, and go past a well-stocked bar. If you are lucky enough the wine you have drunk, will play a prank on your quivering imagination. – Where am I – you will ask yourself. – On Ulica Krokodyli? Or in Ulica Krokodyli? Besides, does it really matter?

“Saturday Night Fever” starts every Friday & Saturday at 8 p.m.
Friday and Saturday evenings takes a couple dozens of years into the past, to the hot rhytms of 70s and 80s – the age of flares, Afro-hair and disco mood straight out of Saturday Night Fever. Maybe some of you will try to match John Travolta or Patrick Swayze on the dance floor. Perhaps Dirty Dancing is not our speciality, but good music and great fun is.
