"When I was invited to create this number, I said, well, I will create it, but you know, it will be dark here. They say, it's very good, people like the dark. I say, yes? They say, yes. I say, well, let's go."

On the stage of the theater for the first time, stand-up comedy - a genre that cleanses the narrator through laughter, but also the listener. Making another person laugh is really not an easy task. And an even more difficult task, which concerns the theater using humor as a form of communication, is to touch on the painful themes of mourning, loss, and suicide, which are close to all of us.

The author of the play, which they are creating together for the first time, Birutė Kapustinskaitė and the director Eglė Švedkauskaitė, invite the audience to travel together to new theatrical forms and explore loss through one stand-up comedy act. in the family.

The characters of the play: Mother - a famous TV presenter and Son - a successful stand-up artist - both are not looking for words in their pocket, but when faced with the loss of their Father, it becomes difficult for them to talk. It's a story about letting go of anger, shame, guilt, and finding ways to open up to vulnerability and to each other.

Stand-up for meaning and meaninglessness is a comic play about the main characters' attempts to communicate after the loss of their father. Black humor, self-irony and narrative humor (stand-up) are combined here with drama, interweaving a story about loss, about the relationship between mother and son with society's attitude to mourning and the resulting need to adapt," says the author of the play, Birutė Kapustinskaitė.

"I think that theater, as a means of communication with a public and wide audience, must not only talk about heroic death and self-sacrifice, but also about elementary, unmystified mental health, you must follow what is happening in society here and now, you must develop empathy for people facing depression and other mental illnesses. This play is a way to talk about hope and the desire to live, even when you don't seem to know how to do it," director Eglė Švedkauskaitė.
