DILETANTAS (Susapnavęs Angelą)

Dilettante (dreamed of angel)
Jean Cocteau's personality, a prominent twentieth century, is intriguing in Kosmos Theater, which combines art, science and technology. Portrait of the French Interdisciplinary Artist. He was a friend of Igor Stravinsky, Marcel Proust, Nobel laureate André Gide, Pablo Picasso. And the unfortunate creator: film director, theater playwright, poet, boxing manager, pianist, traveler, sculptor, artist, associated with Dadaism and Surrealism movements, but not fully fit. By interpreting his creative path and biography, the creators of the performance analyze what the contemporary artist is and what we are.
The main highlight of the performance becomes the 20th century. At the beginning of the 19th century, the theater style, reminiscent of the modernist cabaret environment, from the old -fashioned ad column on the street to the mechanized scenography transformations. The main communication with the viewer takes place with the help of images, dolls, dolls, objects and shadows with the help of the theater.
The dramaturgical performance directs one day of J. Cocteau, and indeed a lifetime. This structure allows viewers to experience a seemingly abstract performance through the extremely specific events of J. Cocteau's life: a journey around the world, opium dependence, film directing, workaholism, mourning.
J. Cocteau's face model and voice mask for the performance were generated by artificial intelligence, and actress Airida Gintautaitė, nominated for the Golden Stage Cross, creates a dreamy and hypnotic image of the artist's world on stage.
The world premiere of the performance took place in 2024. At the International Visual and Puppet Theater Festival in Fimfa Lisbon (Portugal), the performance was presented at the International Stage Festival "Contempo" and International Theater Festival "Sirens" in the Lithuanian theater showcase.
"If you did not know that it was Lithuanian production, you would think that with such a delicate depression and humor mortar, only the Frenchmen themselves can build a mono performance.
