Play "Generalinė repeticija"

This year, the Kaunas Cultural Centre's Kazys Binkis Theatre is celebrating its 90th anniversary! The history of the theatre, which began in 1936, continues to this day – over the decades, the theatre has nurtured creators, staged plays beloved by audiences, and fostered amateur theatre traditions. To mark the anniversary, audiences can look forward to three plays: "Šiurpūs įvykiai Pabališkių karčemoje", "Generalinė repeticija", and "Randor Kvit Arba kas gudresnis?". We invite you to meet and celebrate 90 years of creative history together! Kazys Binkis's grotesque drama "Generalinė repeticija" was written against the backdrop of world-shaking events, when all around it was still "...cozy, bright, pleasant, only occasionally feeling the beats of an approaching storm...". Soon, calm everyday life seems like an unattainable beacon of happiness, and human values lose their meaning in the face of incomprehensible ambitions that demand the most precious thing – human life. Today, we are experiencing a similar state. We are ordinary people with no influence on the decisions of the "powerful". What is the happiness and meaning of life for a "little man" in such a world of lost values? There is no exact answer – we only know that we live but once... Director – Nida Vita Žilinskienė Set designer – Rasa Puišienė
