„Vedybos“

Could be a comedy

Playwright: Gabrielė Labanauskaitė

(Based on the motives of N.V. Gogol's play)

Try to understand and explain, what people think about being together in our digital, changing and war-torn times. Why do they need each other? What motivates us to look for a friend and what causes us to break up?

Each of us at different moments in our lives experienced the feeling of loneliness and each of us tried to fill this void with "something". It's a matter for "someone" and "someone" shares their life with another person.

One ​​of the most successful Ukrainian directors, Stas Zhyrkov, searches for answers and explores loneliness, themes of age, marriage and divorce in the play "Marriage". The play, based on Nikolai Gogol's play, even after 180 years invites us to look deeper and look for meaning and/or answers.

Why? Because the theater cares! It's not the numbers in the statistics that matter (unfortunately, Lithuania and Latvia are the leaders in divorce, 3.1 divorces per 1000 inhabitants), it's the topic that is relevant today and TOMORROW. The theater is concerned with the analysis of a time slice, the reflection of world events and societal problems, the disclosure of topics that may be (un)popular and/or (un)relevant here and now. And their relevance depends only on our desire to understand these topics.

During the performance, you will feel close to what will happen on stage. In the restored five-room apartment, the audience will have the opportunity to feel as if they were there. Such closeness of the viewer is necessary for maximum immersion in the reality of what is happening.

Thanks to the Lithuanian dramatist Gabrielė Labanauskaitė, the characters of the restored play are brought to the present, more recognizable and close, and their dialogues are more relevant and acute for today's problems.
