IS IT EASY?
Premiere: 2022 08 21
Is it easy for you to travel without Google Maps? To make connections? Speaking in front of a big audience? Or to communicate without words? For some it may seem like a huge challenge, for others, it may seem like an inspiration. What is new, unfamiliar, and difficult for some, is ordinary and easy for others.

Kindred
Director: Povilas BARZDŽIUS
Premiere: 2025 01 08

„Kindred“ is a masquerade of desire, identity, and the search for love, where four young women try on various social and cultural masks. Caught in absurd and complex situations, they navigate between self-expression and societal expectations, embodying the fluid nature of love in the modern world. "What happens on stage is not necessarily serious—it can be satirical or provocative. While working on this production, I didn’t want to sympathize with or pity the characters but rather to laugh at the absurd emotional entanglements they get caught up in," says director Povilas Barzdžius.

GALAXIES (10+)
Director: Jūratė TRIMAKAITĖ
Premiere: 2024 September 12

The performance is intended for audiences aged 10 and up.

The life of the teenage boy Karolis is a delicate dance between a passion for the mysteries of the cosmos and the challenges of communication with others. Karolis, who has an autism spectrum disorder, perceives the world as a vast cacophony, where every sound, taste, touch, and smell is intensified, making things that are familiar to us seem alien to him. The safest place for him is his room—a refuge that he transforms into a spaceship, embarking on extraordinary journeys to distant planets in search of his (neuro)tribe—a community that truly understands him.
