ARTYN teatro spektaklis "Tėvuko žaislai" | Kaunas

"Father's Toys" is a story about actors stuck in the twists and turns of purgatory, who try to find redemption, forgiveness and salvation while rehearsing their own lives. Under the guidance of a mysterious Director, the actors become chess pieces that the Director pushes and tries to to discover the most unexpected moves that lead to the desired redemption. But not all chess games are easy to understand, not all are won. Sometimes you have to play again and again to find that one, the most correct, death-defeating move Does the director try to find a way to salvation in vain and his fight against evil is fruitless? , and if they don't - sooner or later they will be judged and will have to atone for all their sins, but not as a society, but as each of its individuals individually. And it will no longer matter whether we are justified while still living here, on Earth, or after we have gone to Eternity - we will all have to seek the Truth. Truths that we have hidden for all kinds of reasons - to protect each other from pain, or to protect ourselves, to fear punishment, or simply not wanting to admit that we made a mistake. The burden of mistakes and guilt can be lightened if we admit our mistakes and stop playing with our lives and those of our loved ones. Sometimes when we play this way we are guided by the best wishes, but in any case, such a game leads to destruction, because only "the truth will set you free". the inhabitants - Mēta, Paulė, Gvidas and Pani Helia, who become a kind of toys of Father, in search of atonement for his sins.
