A party with the personified death, based on Lithuanian mythology and folklore. It's a game ritual, which brings us back from the existence of Facebook to nature. It‘s a fascinating combination of ancient ritual and today's casual life, folk and modern humour, spooky impressions grounded in centuries-old mythical experiences.
“Death is natural and normal. Everyone will die one day. However, you need to look at death not with the fear but on the joyous, bright side. Death is not the end”, says director of the performance Darius Rabašauskas.
Folklore researcher, and composer of the performance Laurita Peleniūtė draws attention to the importance of a relationship with death in the formation of personality: "If everyone knew that our death is always near us, we would learn to live a more meaningful life. Death wouldn‘t be the source of fear but the wisdom that accompanies us“, she says.
This performance is about being together. Therefore, the definition of a party is very suitable for it. The party may be different but the main thing for the party is to get people together. "The party with the death should inspire everyone for meaningful work", says director Darius Rabašauskas.
