JMDT | LAUKYS rež. Olga Lapina

Mindaugas Nastaravičius LAUKYS one-part performance

"I want to tell you a story about people who live in the mountains, about the wind, so strong at the top that it gently blows off the faces of those mountain people - not tearing it off, not tearing it apart, but gust after gust - and blows as if drying or wiping, but those people still talk to each other and recognize each other, because from the hollows , left by the wind, their voices penetrate, and when you listen to them, you hear that they are different after all, although there, in the mountains, it sounds like a single voice, inseparable and indivisible, no longer a voice, not a voice expressed by sounds, which I would like you to know about to tell you now that we both climbed this mountain and probably both thought the same thing, that the wind is a long line across the horizon that sometimes disappears."

How do you talk about the exit without saying the word "death" and choosing light instead of darkness? Or to talk about loneliness, perceiving it not as "mine", but as a state of "all of us". And how do we imagine the space that spreads between "there" and "here", between the spoken and the silent, the tangible and the only sensed?

The performance "Laukys" - it is a story of the beginning and the end of man, full of exceptional visuals and special musical sensibility. About a community that escorts a person to where it never ends. The unusual shape of the work tells about the feelings of farewell, mourning and waiting, which turn into delicate poetic and philosophical images. hour allowed us to look at the intermediate stop between death and life. The performance invited us to consider the states of those who no longer exist in this world, to look where the human eye usually does not stray." "performance" genre presented a spectacle, due to which the unique, palpable and intoxicating natural reality of the Miltinii Theater once again flowed from the old Panevėžys drama stage into the hall."

critic Greta Vilnelė: "Laukys, which creates a visual narrative, is worthy of attention because of its unique, not so often seen stage language in Lithuania."

2023 the performance was awarded the "Golden Cross of the Stage" in the Actors' Ensemble category.
