Interview with Waldermar Wolański, Puppet Master. KK: Do you feel like a big kid?
WW: It depends on how you look at it. If you define a child as a happy person, then yes, I feel like a child. I think of myself as a man who is fulfilled. I work in a job that I like, and I am successful. I am surrounded by people who I trust and who help me alot. I can thus say of myself that I am a child of good fortune.

On the other hand, I feel the weight of an immense responsibility on my shoulders. To manage such a theatre and organize events in a city demands a titanic amount of effort and constant vigilance. These are not characteristics that a child poses. KK: I ask because I am wondering whether being an actor and puppet master is a serious vocation... WW: I get kind of pissed off when people ask me that question. As far as I understand it, this vocation is something far more than being a mere dramatic actor, because aside from having to have the same skills as a dramatic actor, you have to be able to bring a puppet to life. You have to infuse it wit your emotions, and it's merely a doll. This requires considerable skills. I wish to remind you that puppet theatre has, historically, been performed for adult audiences. Greeks used masks all the time, but you can also find elements of puppet theatre in rituals and performances dating from the middle ages. It is only following the second world
