Kraków’s Kazimierz district has undergone extensive gentrification and touristification in the last 15 years, including tours conducted in small golf cart-like vehicles that blare out recorded audio tracks in any of several languages. This performance piece will take place in such a vehicle, which will offer alternative tours of Kazimierz. The narratives are not limited to a recitation of dry, and sometimes false, historical facts, but explore the real complications, controversies and cultural confusion of contemporary Kazimierz. Tours will be made by Jason Francisco – narrated by Alex Poch-Goldin (EN) / Kuba Szatko (PL), Menachem Kaiser – narrated by Michael Rubenfeld (EN), Adam Schorin – narrated by Adam Schorin (EN) and Betty Q (PL) and Paulina Skotnicka – narrated by Maja Luxenberg (PL).
