2 METRAI: The Funniest Christmas Show

2 METRAI: Deivis Norvilas and Rafailas Karpis announce their biggest adventure yet – the arena tour "The Funniest Christmas Show"

After a successful tour across Lithuania, the "2 METRAI" project bid farewell to their "The Funniest Concert of the Year" program at a sold-out Palanga Concert Hall. However, the farewell is only temporary. Deividas Norvilas-Deivis and Rafailas Karpis are already preparing a new surprise for their listeners and are announcing the biggest concerts of their careers – in December, a new program, "The Funniest Christmas Show," will be performed in the country's major concert halls and arenas, accompanied by the Kaunas Big Band (chief conductor – Tomas Botyrius).

The new program, "The Funniest Christmas Show," premiering in December and directed by Andrius Žiurauskas, will be much more than just a concert. Audiences can look forward to a spectacle combining elements of a concert, play, comedy performance, and show, featuring the Kaunas Big Band, LED visualizations, impressive scenography, lighting solutions, specially composed music, and unexpected surprises.

"Christmas is a time for miracles, not only for the audience but also for us performers, so we will try to create a miracle on stage. We are preparing many interesting ideas that we hope will lift people into a true Christmas mood," says Rafailas.

"There will be a big band, there will be Christmas songs, there will be surprises. We will undoubtedly do everything as we always do – with plenty of laughter," adds Deivis.

Organizers "Pepper Live" hint that the audience can expect not only new original songs but also unexpected interpretations of well-known pieces. One thing the team can promise right now – there will be no doves flying in this show. However, the organizers take no responsibility for any other surprises that may await on stage.

During the more than six-month-long "The Funniest Concert of the Year" tour, the duo traveled across Lithuania, held several dozen concerts, and, as they joke themselves, managed to get to know each other better.

"My favorite thing about Deivis is that he is the only colleague who doesn't block me on stage. The worst thing? He is very annoying – he always picks fights over nothing, he is constantly dissatisfied with something. Although, to be honest, I am probably even more annoying than he is," laughs Rafailas.

Deivis also lists his stage partner's flaws with a smile. "The worst thing about Rafailo is that during our travels, he chooses exceptionally bad restaurants that the whole team has to go to. But the good thing is that once he realizes where he has led us, he pays for everyone," says the performer.
