Ewa Kasprzyk’s show, based on Pedro Almodovar’s Patty Diphus, won the Best Foreign Performance Award. Wioletta Komar received the Best Actress Prize for her role in Diva, while Sylvia Milo won the Best Costume Prize for her show Mozart's Sister.

The main award of the festival went to Haley McGee from Canada for the show Oh My Irma.

The programme of the festival included 29 one-man and 48 one-woman shows by artists from the United States, Argentina, Austria, Bulgaria, Botswana, Canada, Ireland, Israel, The Netherlands, Poland, and Serbia, ranging from drama, storytelling, puppetry, and multimedia shows to stand-up, magic, improvisation, and dance.

Founded last year, the event is the brainchild of the Polish actor and director Omar Sangare, who currently teaches drama at the prestigious Williams College in Massachusetts. (mk)
