This paper focuses on the narratives generated by the Park itself and the journalists writing about it. The work presents and analyzes two narratives, subordinated to the overarching discourse of transformation and focused on the Dancing Bears Park. In one of them, produced by the institution itself, the image of the Park as a refuge for animals harmed by humans dominates. The second narrative, produced mainly by cultural texts about the Park, situates the practice of bear-dancing, which is a problem and source of shame, in the context of the social positioning and attitude of Bulgarians towards the Roma living in Bulgaria. Our research is based on the method of critical discourse analysis, methodological approach associated mainly with the person of Teun van Dijk.
