New Lithuanian actors’ final works on the theatre stages

New theatre actors will perform on Lithuanian theatre stages: the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre invites you to visit the Theatre Art Acting Final Works until the end of May. Theatre Works will be presented at the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre, the Lithuanian National Drama Theatre, Vilnius Theatre “Lėlė” and the Oskaras Koršunovas Theatre.

“Graduation performances always arouse curiosity in the theatre audience, because you can see what new actors are coming to the stage,” says Gintaras Varnas, a professor at the LMTA and a theatre director.

This year, a small course of 9 students will graduate from the G. Varnas course, whose actors will play roles in 8 final performances. Interestingly, most of this year’s Acting graduation works are directed by last year’s graduates – Justinas Vinciūnas, Karolis Zajauskas, Jonas Kuprevičius, Povilas Barzdžius.

“It will be interesting to see plays that have already been staged, but in a different time period, such as “Shopping and f*cking”, based on a play by Mark Ravenhill, or Psychosis, based on Sarah Kane,” says G. Varnas. Professor Varnas adds that the final repertoire will also include the previously popular and now reinterpreted by young people performance of Roland Schimmelpfnnig’s play “Arabian Night”. The audience can also look forward to an interesting work about girls’ personality searches and the theme of love, “Close”, based on the works of two authors – Falk Richter and William Shakespeare.
