BRŪZGYNŲ EILĖS Interaktyvus spektaklis - žygis Kelionė patiriant gamtą ir poeziją! Trukmė: 1 val. 20 min. Susitikimo vieta: Pranešime prieš spektaklį „Šiuo metu, kai internetinės karo aktualijos emociškai krečia tiek suaugusius, tiek vaikus, kviečiame šeimas paklausyti medžių interneto – valandėlę atitrūkti ir patirti, kaip bendrauja medžiai, varnos, varlės. Užsidėjus poeto akinius spektaklio-žygio metu patirsime atbundančią gamtą. Tikimės, kad patyriminė kelionė po gamtą ir poeziją suteiks naujų jėgų ir įkvėpimo, kuris ypač reikalingas per pandemiją ir dabartinės krizės metu nukentėjusiems vaikams ir jaunimui. Gėtė yra pasakęs, kad gamta – vienintelė knyga, kurios kiekvienas puslapis prasmingas. Su gražiausiomis lietuviškomis eilėmis apie gamtą siekiame priminti, jog iš atbundančios gamtos verta semtis jėgų ir įkvėpimo kasdienybei“,– pasakojo interaktyvaus spektaklio „Brūzgynų eilės“ režisierė, profesionalios scenos menų organizacijos „Teatro istorijos“ vadovė Kristina Mauruševičiūtė.

Žagarės dvaro parke žiūrovus pasitiks gamtos entuziastas ir šiek tiek poetas Vaidotas (aktorius Artūras Dubaka), kuris išdalins žiūrovams garsinę techniką, leidžiančią patirti slaptą miško radijo ryšį.

EN POEMS OF THICKETS An Interactive Performance-Hike A journey through nature and poetry! Duration: 1 hour 20 minutes Meeting point: Will be announced before the performance “At a time when the emotional impact of war-related news online affects both adults and children, we invite families to tune into the forest’s internet – to disconnect for a moment and experience how trees, crows, and frogs communicate. By putting on a poet's glasses during this performance-hike, we will feel the awakening of nature. We hope this immersive journey through poetry and the natural world will bring strength and inspiration, especially needed by children and youth affected by the pandemic and current crises. Goethe once said that nature is the only book where every page has meaning. With the most beautiful Lithuanian poems about nature, we seek to remind everyone that awakening nature is a source of daily strength and inspiration,” – says Kristina Mauruševičiūtė, director of the interactive performance Verses of the Brambles and head of the professional performing arts organization Teatro istorijos. Poems by Marcelijus Martinaitis, Antanas Baranauskas, Antanas A. Jonynas, Daiva Čepauskaitė, and others are brought to life by actors Eglė Mikulionytė, Rasa Samuolytė, Julius Žalakevičius, Rytis Saladžius, Ilona Kvietkutė, Vytautas Kontrimas, Paulius Čižinauskas, Giedrius Savickas, and Vytautas Rašimas. These well-known Lithuanian poets’ verses about the beauty of the country's landscape and its imaginative heroes will invite children aged 7 to 15 to discover the poetry hidden in fragments of the natural world and awaken their own creative talents. In the Žagarė Manor Park, the audience will be greeted by Vaidotas (actor Artūras Dubaka), a nature enthusiast and part-time poet, who will provide audio equipment allowing participants to tap into the secret radio waves of the forest. Vaidotas will guide the audience along poetic paths and brambly trails, creating a harmonious duet between nature and poetry. During the performance-hike, artistic pop-up sculptures, tunnel books, and installations – forest theater scenes – created by visual artists will come to life along the Pūčkoriai nature trail, providing a stage for the poems and their characters to unfold.

THE DILETTANTE (*who dreamt of an Angel) - KOSMOS THEATRE
16th May / gegužės 16 d. (TBC)

EN
A one-act audiovisual mono-performance immersing in the surreal world of Jean Cocteau’s artistic work. Jean Cocteau is a hardly fully comprehensible personality, whose dilettantism in different artistic fields flows out like fragments of a particularly rich poetic world – incomplete, imperfect, hasty, brave, resembling nothing else. He is a playwright, a poet, a painter, a drawer, a novelist, a graphic designer, a music manager, a boxing manager, an opium addict, an enemy of André Breton, but a good friend of Igor Stravinsky, Marcel Proust, Nobel Prize winner André Gide, Pablo Picasso or Erik Satie. The suicide of his father, the influence of Catholicism and Surrealism, the parallels between boxing and ballet, opium addiction, journey around the world, friendships with the most extraordinary artists of the time and art work, poetry, drama, prose, cinema, theatre, music – all these are the main themes of Cocteau’s life, which are the focus of an audiovisual intermedia narrative developed in a laboratory-like creative process. The work freely improvises on motives from Jean Cocteau’s graphic and paintings, poems, novels “Opium”, “The White Paper”, theatre play “The Human Voice” and his films “Blood of the Poet”, “Orpheus’ Testament” and his biography. “The material for the performance becomes Cocteau himself, understanding him not just as an interdisciplinary artist, but also as an anthropomorphized montage of different media and disciplines. In this performance, all stage components are part of Cocteau’s personality. By dividing these disciplines (cinema, surreal objects, music, literature, fashion, etc.) and giving them to each member of the creative team, we aimed to break this montage back down into separate media and to montage them again into new contemporary intermedial pieces. With an incredibly talented team, we worked to find indirect connections, parallels, poetic paradoxes that would establish a symbolic relationship between themes, sounds, images and symbols that have nothing to do with each other outside this surreal world. We were working on a small scale so that we could freely and equally combine media art, music, animation, acting, cinema, mechanized scenography object, texts, puppet and object theatre, soundspace and other contemporary theatre instruments.” – Žilvinas Vingelis, director and dramaturg of the performance. |
CRONOPIO CLOWN (ARG) - Clown and Juggler
18th May / gegužės 18 d. (TBC)
|
Performance title: “I am a professional”
Mariano, better known by his stage name Cronopio, is a clown, director, tightrope walker and juggler from Argentina. He started his career in the art world in 1997, performing in Argentina and other South American countries, as well as in Europe. In 2002, he founded the clown theater company Compañía de Trabajadores Kallejeros, so that clowning would reach not only big cities, but also small towns and villages. Mariano’s search for a true and authentic Clown character is based on the realities of life, so he is interested in interacting with very different audiences – rich and poor, young and old, serious and funny, interested and skeptical. “I believe in the transformative power of art, and that each of us is gifted with the ability to learn the language of art in order to share our unique vision of the world.” Photo: Laura Appena Photography |
