REVIEW (In Lithuanian):

A human being in a shadow of theatrical impression

"It seems that this generation of directors draws inspiration for their performances from the stylistics that emerged on the stages of Western Europe (especially Germany): massive and aesthetic set design, expanding the space or transferring a part of the action to video projections, detached acting, etc. The latter being the most pronounced in the works of U. Bartoševičiūtė and A. Gornatkevičius - directors who aimed to create events in which the audience would feel part of the evening. This is a difficult and risky path, which, if successful, leads the audience to unique and special experiences.

​

This time, most of the performances highlighted issues of feminism and gender roles, which are inevitably based on a consumerist society and the pandering to its constructs. It is interesting to observe analyses of similar themes in different contexts: the family, the entertainment business, mass parties, elite circles, etc.

​

The interest in feminism and gender roles will probably eventually lead to a more in-depth analysis of the themes and the need to portray more poignant, uncomfortable situations than those discovered and embodied so far."
