Event description
In tragicomedy, one of the most talented and active Lithuanian women in the play "NT Drama" by playwright Gabriele Labanauskaitė the playwright, with light subtle humor, keenly and probingly observes, assesses and portrays the extent to which personal desires and dreams (to own a home) are governed by stereotypes of the ideal life used by real estate agents. The play "NT Drama" reveals the manipulation of the real estate infrastructure with utopias and stereotypes, and shows the mechanism of the capitalist trap, in which the weaker, socially and financially insecure part of the people are the most affected. This social theme of the play has become even more relevant during the pandemic period of recent years, with the rise of the real estate price bubble and the desperation of people trying to protect their finances and recklessly investing in any real estate, while young people face the capitalist absurdity of trying to get a loan from a bank and buy their own home . The play NT DRAMA has not yet been staged in Lithuania, but has already won the international prize for playwrights in 2021. Heidelberg (Germany) theater festival "Heidelberger Stückemarkt".
