About the World (Festival LUTKE)

Description
About the World is inspired by one of the oldest myths about the origin of the world.
A giant duck hatched from an egg on the moon by the water and set off in search of food. In the meantime, it began to rain, the nest was soaked and the egg fell out. Through the use of knitted fabrics and puppets made from natural materials, the production encourages the development of children's senses and, by exploring creatures that inhabit different landscapes, explains the world as full of creativity, constant change and movement that follows the cycles of nature, and man as part of nature that carries the universe within it.

Outdoor footwear must be taken off before the performance.

Vilnius Theatre “Lėlė”, founded in 1958 in Vilnius by the puppeteer and director Balys Lukošius, is a state repertoire theatre. The theatre has two halls, a creative studio and a permanent exposition of the Living Puppet Museum.

Since 1966, the theatre has been participating in the festivals of the UNIMA. “Lėlė” also contributes to the activities of the international organization ASSITEJ.
