The performance, which has been on the stage for 11 years, was reborn after five years in whole new colours, with completely different actors, with a different name but unforgettable songs and undeniable truths, because as many actors from Keistuolių theatre say, "The most important thing is to see miracles in simple things!"This story began when one little girl named Dorothy got tired of everything: houses, books and even toys. Then a huge storm, caused by the evil sorceress Gingema, flew the girl from her native Kansas to a distant, mysterious and unfamiliar country.But it is written in the magic book: "The little girl that was brought to the Wonderland by a hurricane will be brought home by the Great Wizard of the Emerald City if she fulfills the holiest desires of three creatures.”Meanwhile, the winding Yellow Brick Road, which is full of surprises and dangers, led to the city of Emerald...If you are curious and brave, you are not afraid of witches and sorcerers, we invite you to travel with Dorothy over the Yellow Brick Road "to the city of Dreams, where emeralds sparkle." Then you will see for yourselves whether the little girl managed to reach the Emerald City, and you will find out whether Dorothy returned to her native home safe and sound.And we wish that your holiest desires and most beautiful dreams come true. "It's all about just wanting, trying, and believing."Screenwriter and director - Aidas GiniotisStage designer and costume designer - Ramunė SkrebūnaitėComposers: Aidas Giniotis and Andrius KulikauskasOn stage:Narrator - Giedrius KielaDorothy - Jovita Jankelaitytė Fairy - Ieva StundžytėScarecrow - Danas KamarauskasTin Woodman - Jurgis Marčėnas / Eimantas BareikisCowardly Lion - Justas TertelisWitch Gingema - Judita UrnikytėGuardian of the Gates - Aidas GiniotisWizard of Oz - Jonas SharkusRecommended for children from 4 years of ageDuration - 1 hour 50 minutes (with 1 intermission)Premiere - 7 February 2009Thanks to UAB Aloritus for translating the description into English!

Can it be changed? Can traditional fairy tale heroes be helped by modern items? Can the old as the world question have a new answer? Could a rooster fly into space with a samurai sword and a Chick's eye be protected with a pair of sunglasses?Stage designer and costume designer Ramunė Skrebūnaitė realized her dream during the years of her studies - to create a performance in which the objects that come to life would expand the space of adventure and become important participants in events. Here a girl and a boy fight for their right to believe in such a fairy tale as they remember. But playing alone is not engaging. So for the sake of a common game, children start looking for a compromise. On this road to friendship, one learns creatively about forgiveness, selflessness, and other things that are important not only to children."In the performance two adult people laugh and cause mischief as freely as children," says actor Viola Klimčiauskaitė, while her colleague Dalius Skamarakas adds: "The messages life-changing truths conveyed to children in the form of a game are often relatively more accessible, as they manage to find way to their hearts faster."Vivacious music by Andrius Kulikauskas, simple and sincere lyrics of songs will engage even the youngest viewers, while older children will willingly participate in advising heroes in the face of challenges. Keistuolių theatre performances for children are always distinguished by the fact that they have no "fourth wall" - the actors and the children watching them are not separated by an invisible barrier, and every word spoken by the little spectator creates a further mood of the performance.Parents who bring their children to this dynamic, fun and cozy performance will be able to remember once again how magic, enormous and colourful the world of every child is, even the one that lives within us. Director, stage and costume designer - Ramunė SkrebūnaitėComposer - Andrius KulikauskasStarring - Viola Klimčiauskaitė and Dalius SkamarakasPerformance for children from 3 years of ageDuration - 60 minutesPremiere - 28 September 2013Sponsor of the performance - Culture Support FundThanks to UAB Aloritus for translating the description into English!

Czech writer, author of legendary tales about Boniface's holiday and a hippopotamus that is afraid of vaccinations, M. Macourek testifies in his works that the privilege and fundamental right of the child is his fantasy - a natural creative force. The writer's texts from children's literature are distinguished by unconventional images, playfully absurd story decisions and characters unexpected to the adult eye, which with the performance "The Long Break" move to the stage of Keistuolių theatre.On stage, the revived works are linked by one theme - arrival to the first grade. What happens to a young person who experiences a 180 degree change of the environment and system where he has lived under until now? The creative team of the performance is looking for the answer to this question using abstract space, aesthetics and searching for childish logic, language and connection of relationships. "The most valuable thing we discovered in M. Macourek creativity is the huge respect for the child's inner world. The performance reminds the audience that being in the school system cannot destroy the curious, inventive, imaginative nature of a young person - after all, when he comes to school, the child experiences a constant conflict between how he should look and behave and how he imagines himself. With the "The Long Break" we continue M. Macourek tradition and perform a sort of theatrical study of the inner world of the child," director Lapina shared her thoughts."The Long Break" is a performance not only for pupils that are discussed on the stage; this is a piece for all the people, parents and teachers around them, revealing an imaginative world that is constantly changing in the eyes and thoughts of the child - completely different from what we see through the eyes of an adult. At the same time, it is a performance for anyone who has at least once experienced what it means to step out of their safe and somewhat fantastic world into a big, otherworldly and frightening school life.Director - Olga LapinaOn stage - Judita Urnikytė, Jonas Šarkus, Benita Vasauskaitė, Danas KamarauskasVoice behind the frame - Vladas Bagdonas Set design and costumes - Renata ValčikComposer - Jokūbas TulabaLight artist - Darius Malinauskas Recommended for children from 7 years of age Premiere - 20 November 2016Sponsor of the performance - the Lithuanian Council for CultureThanks to UAB Aloritus for translating the description into English!

Do you think it’s actors repeating their lines over and over like mantras in the deepest nooks of their theatre behind closed doors, the director speaking in an authoritative tone, costumes made ready as if by magic, and a pensive composer working on the soundtrack? Nothing of the kind.Three actors, one playwright, one table and three chairs—welcome to the process of producing a play.Where does art come from? What makes creative work and death alike? What are the stories theatre tells and how? Critics in art websites, viewers in the theatre cloakroom, directors interviewed in shows on culture would say “its stories cover anything and everything”. Yet our play is about nothing.The play About Nothing, written and directed by Linas Jurkštas, is a comic, absurd and rowdy caricature of art, a self-ironic spotlight on creators. In a single evening, viewers see the actors in action from their first reading of the play to the day of the premiere; they see both the making-of of a performance and a story about a young man who has challenged Death, with a hint of the Italian commedia dell’arte. About Nothing is a peek at what happens behind the scenes with the creative process this time presented right there on the stage. It is a playful provocation and a deft balancing act where nonsense meets existential questions.Director, playwright: Linas JurkštasCast: Danas Kamarauskas, Jurgis Marčėnas, Gabrielius Zapalskis, Birutė Belada Tauterytė/Viola Klimčiauskaitė.Scenography: Ramunė SkrebūnaitėMusic: Gabrielius ZapalskisRuntime: 2 hours 15 minutes (1 interval)Premiere: 25 January 2019N-12Thanks to UAB Aloritus for translating the description into English!
