Early spring morning. Nods. The family is about to sit at the breakfast table, but one son is late. How can he afford it? After all, certain rules must be followed at home. Not to be too late, to hide nothing, to talk in time and to silence in time. These rules are obeyed by the family and must obey everyone who enters the door of the house.

The closest people are in the Virginija Rimkaitė's play, but their official and cold communication betrays that the playwright tells us about family relationships in the crisis. In the center of the play, the mother, creating the myth of the harsh world behind the walls of the world and the opposite illusion of safe homes. However, security here is equal to unlimited control of family members. Henry, an eldest son, who has congenital heart failure, cannot boast of great social skills, so we observe his absurdly comic efforts to knit relationships with women who are suitable for his mother to become his wives and nurses. Next to it, the younger son, Albert, works next to it, whose silence definitely hides something. One -day events lead to the dramatic consequences of rebellion against the mother's system.

The performance director Eglė Švedkauskaitė says she is intrigued by her mother's world, where other characters slowly become hostage: " , The mother protects the self -created myth about family well -being and values. For the public, family relationships have always been a topical topic - the family is changing with the changing era, causing fractures and conflicts between people with different beliefs, between different generations. In this performance we will talk about the distorted reality when family values ​​turn into a justification of cruelty. "
