Joël Pommerat „DVIEJŲ KORĖJŲ SUSIJUNGIMAS“ (Rež. Monika Klimaitė)

Joëlis Pommerat (b. 1963) is a playwright and director, one of the most prominent theater phenomena in France in recent years. Often called by critics as an artist who found an original theatrical language, he is resoundingly called a theatrical alchemist who makes the text, stage space, plot and image interact in a new way. In 1990, Mr. Pommerat formed his own theater troupe, which he called the "Louis Brouillard Company" (Louis Brouillard is a non-existent character, a mask that Mr. Pommerat invented to "mislead the audience a little"). The troupe does not have its own stage, tours a lot and has become one of the most famous French troupes working with contemporary drama

J. Pommerat's play "The Reunification of the Two Koreas" written in 2013 is constructed from twenty scenes, twenty fictional individual dramas in which the playwright unfolds a dramatic panorama of romantic relationships. According to Mr. Pommerat himself: "Love relationships lead to blindness because of their intensity." In essence, the play is not even about love itself, but about the impossibility of love.

"For me, this play is a look at love in the broadest sense, at the mechanism of its operation, at the components that make it up. movement of particles. While reading, I thought that love is not only about being together, but also about not being together. That it is not only what unites us, but probably also what separates us, pushes us away from each other. I like that the play is dominated by an active position in relation to love, that it is illustrated by the following sayings: "try to understand", "find out", "feel", "hear". (Monika Klimaitė)

This production is part of the theater laboratory "We - France", which took place from June 1 to 11. "We are France" is an attempt to look at the French drama in a new way, to update it, to read it in a new way. Sketches born in the laboratory based on selected plays by French authors were presented on June 9-11.
