VMT spektaklis | MASKARADAS

Part II, one of the most unique and long-lasting performances of the Lithuanian theater, Rim Tumin's "Masquerade", has been on stage for almost thirty years with the ever-growing love of the audience. Using the work of Mikhail Lermontov, a genius of the Romantic era, which is close to his soul, the director managed to express today's world permeated by phantasmagoria. Director - Rimas Tuminas Author of the play - Michail Lermontov Scenographer - Adams Jacovskis Composer - Faustas Latėnas Costume designer - Virginija Idzelytė-Dautartienė Translated from Russian by Vytautas Bložė Cast: ARBENIN - Arvydas Dapšys NINA - Indrė Patkauskaitė PRINCE - Vytautas Rumšas (junior) BARONESS - Agnė ŠataitėŠPRICH - Tomas Stirna KAZARINA - Mindaugas Capas SERVANT - Edmundas Mikulskis UNKNOWN - Almantas Šinkūnas MAID OF THE BALL - Larisa Kalpokaitė MAID - Rasa Jakučionytė BEAR - Tomas Rinkūnas PLAYERS: Jonas Braškys, Tomas Kliukas, Balys Latėnas, Tomas Rinkūnas, Almantas Šinkūnas WOMEN: Vilija Ramanauskaitė, Jūratė Brogaitė, Rasa Jakučionytė, Neringa Būtytė, Larisa Kalpokaitė, Greta Bendžė Although all of R. Tumin's performances put the audience in a festive mood and allow them to experience the almost childlike pure joy of the celebration, "Masquerade" probably surpasses them all: it will find itself in the viewer who is thinking, and looking for beauty or longing for humor. The work involves a love story centered on a lost bracelet, where various characters are involved: gamblers, ladies, a baroness, a duke, servants and those you can't even name exactly - people who surround us every day, who are mediators of pure love and its pests. In a performance of amazing aesthetics, we hear the sounds of the waltz of the Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian and the slowly falling snow in the empty black space of the stage. The cultural experience of the past century is nostalgically reflected, making us remember the theater of B. Brecht and G. Strehler, Broadway frenzies or F. Fellini's films. In Rim Tumin's "Masquerade", the director's vivid and individual sense of romanticism is related not only to the culture of the 19th century, but also to the world of folklore, the genre of commedia dell'arte. The elements of the latter genre do not allow the enchanting spectacle to turn into a mere sentimental melodrama, in the hands of the director it turns into an eccentric tragicomedy. The play, which entered the "golden fund" of the Lithuanian theater, has traveled to many countries of the world - from Sweden to Italy, from South Korea to Mexico - and won several prestigious awards. After the "Masquerade" tour in Great Britain in 1999. The Guardian named the troupe from Vilnius one of the best in the world.
