Producer - The State Youth Theatre of Lithuania
Premiere January 20, 2018
It is the second stage work in Lithuania of internationally acclaimed Danish theatre director and leader of company Hotel Pro Forma Kirsten Dehlholm. The famous book by Astrid Lindgren is staged as visual soundtrack. The story is told through the illness, death, betrayal, tyranny, brotherly love, fidelity, courage and other experiences of two brothers Lionheart. The goal of the creators of the performance is to stimulate imagination and senses of spectators of different age groups.
"Indeed, from the very beginning of the “Brothers Lionheart”, the reader falls into the afterlife world. And death is a complete mystery. What is a pomiting life? Is it fantasy? I think the view depends on what kind of person you are and what you believe in... This topic gives a lot of space for discussion. Therefore, we want to show the viewers only the top of the iceberg so that they can discover their way of understanding and interpreting this story" (director Kirsten Dehlholm)
