The performance "Remyga" from the original idea to the final realization is related to Šiauliai. Rimantas Kmita, the author of the bestseller "Southern Chronicle", who writes the play specifically for this performance, presents a phantasmagoric version of history, derived from real facts and fiction. The play talks about the city and its people, about real events and myths, and those who have become their destiny. Remiga returns viewers to the first year of independence. What (not) visible in front we fought then? What have we been and what we became?
The act of the play takes place in conflicting 1988-1992 in Šiauliai. Many are still well remembered by this difficult time of change, when the dark forces of the ancient structures have fallen into the idealism of independence. The main character of the play is Remiga between these two forces. After serving in the Soviet Army in Afghanistan, Remiga returns to his native Šiauliai. He would like to live as "all normal people" - to be a beloved husband, a good father, a dutiful employee. However, the shadows of the past and the chaos around it are thickening, and dark forces are gaining increasing powers. How to draw the boundary between good and evil in such a chaotic society? How to stay honest against yourself and others? How to control your inner demons? What is the price of independence - political and personal?
The creators of the performance shaken a cocktail of a hard -to -define genre made of documentary, everyday authenticity, psychedelic mysticism and live rock music. Director Oskar Koršunovas sees the back of the whole Lithuania in Remiga: "What happened in Šiauliai was also held throughout Lithuania".
