Šokio spektaklis-ritualas SUSITIKIMAS | PŪGA

Finding a witch.
Seeing and hearing until the end.

SU(SI)TIKAMS is a ritual of a closed community, inviting the audience to become not only observers, but also participants. To be tickled dead at the same time, to rock a doll like a woman, to sink ships with a look, to treat with pure spring water, to let go of the hair - to let the devil go, and among the ugliest women to see their three most important vices: unbelief, self-love and insane desire for carnal pleasures.

The dramaturgy of the play SU(SI)TIKIMAS is based on three sources. The first one is an analysis of gender as sexual identity and stereotypes, manifestations of masculinity and femininity in modern society. The creators of the show also rely on archival and little-analyzed stories of witch trials in Lithuania, the echo of which echoes and complements modern realities. The third source is a cross-section of the operation of the SECT, revealing the methods of manipulation, power, influence of faith and operation of the human community. ) is a controversial term used to refer to religious organizations or groups of a certain type.

Limited states of history and human experience force the development team to rethink history, its possibilities of repetition, the natural desire to gather in communities and its consequences and influence, as well as states of sexuality or balancing between the importance of gender and its ambivalence. This performance is created with the help of a certain criticism of society, or maybe simply the desire of the creative team to satisfy their human curiosity in order to reveal the most sensitive problems of society and relationships in it. Viewers here become members of SECT and thus can enjoy all the pleasures offered by SU(SI)TIKIMO.
