I am interested in theatre as a place where fiction and reality intersect, and as an opportunity for an extraordinary experience that goes beyond the art of storytelling itself.

I often try to bring the audience into the performance space, creating an opportunity for participation and encounter.

Tomasz Borczyk (b. 1993, Katowice) is a Polish actor, theatre director and playwright who lived and worked in Spain for many years.

He graduated from the Royal School of Dramatic Art (RESAD) in Madrid, in the Movement Theatre Acting department, and from European Theatre Arts at Rose Bruford College in London. He made his stage debut as Tadzio in the opera Death in Venice at Teatro Real (2014).

From 2017 to 2020 he refined his acting craft in intensive workshops led by John Strasberg, son of Lee Strasberg, the legendary figure of the Actors Studio.

From 2016 to 2018 he was a member of the international company Bred in the Bone Theatre Laboratory, performing with them in England, France and Wales.

From 2018 to 2024 he was artistic director of the collective Noche de Camaleones, through which he created the productions and projects Zoo (2019), Estancias (2020), Rupert’s Dreams (2021), Random Man (2023) and We’d Prefer Not to Perform Bartleby (2024).

In 2020, together with Szymon Milas, he received funding from Poland’s National Centre for Culture to produce the series Instytut Lamparta. Kreatywność (Lampart Institute: Creativity), featuring, among others, Jacek Poniedziałek and Jagoda Szelc.

In 2022 he worked as second director to Lech Majewski on a video art project inspired by the paintings of Jacek Malczewski, created for the National Museum in Poznań. The film version of the project was selected for the Main Competition at Camerimage 2025.

In 2025, together with Carlos Tuñón, he won the performative reading competition at the Teatr na Faktach festival, organized by the Grotowski Institute; as part of the prize, he will stage the performance 7 Boxes in Wrocław.

That same year, his project Hermes won the open call for productions at Komuna Warszawa.
