In order to make money and to anger what he sees as the degeneration of modern society, a long-time orangery keeper decides to ignore moral norms and starts leading illegal night tours. One such night, when he and his fellow tour participants enter a building that is just like his own, he discovers a life he never expected to have.
Invasion is a nocturnal, audiovisual, wondrous and surprising performance of Kosmos Theatre's indoor theatre in the conservatory of the VMU Botanical Garden - a collective experience that reveals the secret life of the conservatory, which is impossible to see during normal working hours.
Kosmos Theatre is a professional independent theatre of audiovisual experimentation, combining classical theatre formats with contemporary technologies and new media. In 2020, the creative team published the Kosmos Manifesto, which is dedicated to the development and promotion of visual theatre in Lithuania. Since then, the theatre has been experimenting in the field of audiovisual dramaturgy, which aims to combine different types of theatre, media and other theatrical elements in an equal way. The theatre is active in performing arts, interactive media, VR, installations, web art and other cultural innovations. Since 2019, the theatre has been organising the annual international visual theatre workshop "Kosmos LAB".
