More about the event:
7PM - BLOOD WEDDING (SPAIN, 60’)
The performance is inspired by F.G. Lorca’s work “Blood Wedding”. The singing, the flamenco, the contemporary dance and the projections are combined with the three tragic stories that weave the narrative web. The story of the real people who inspired F.G. Lorca in 1928, the story of the mother, the moon and the bride of Lorca’s drama, and the story of Federico, as the main actor in a drama that ends with an obscene and absurd death.
Script/direction: Pati Doménech

9PM - ANTIGONE (LITHUANIA, 50’)
Inspired by the ancient tragedy of Sophocles, the performance explores ways of connecting the ancient and modern language, juxtaposing human figures in front of sequences of video images of the Chorus. Birute Mar transforms into Antigone, then to her sister Ismene, to Creon, and his son Haemon, to a guard and to the prophet Tiresias. The fragile human body on stage and the great projections of the Chorus are accompanied by music and text.
Script/direction: Birute Mar
Video: Andrious Jakucionis & Antanas Kucinskas
