To put it simply, Seniors is a simple play about the extraordinary lives of ordinary pensioners. The very title of the play clearly suggests what it is about - old age. And who can say what and who is that old age? Comedy? Tragedy? Absurd? Nonsense? Or maybe the most important part of human life? Apparently, there are all kinds of old people, just like there are all kinds of people. For some it is a golden age, for others it is hell, for others... for others... they do not understand what has happened to them and they go on living as they have lived: on the inside in their twenties and on the outside as a sleep-deprived young man. The fourth can't wait for this nightmare to end, the fifth has never had as much fun as he is having now, the sixth thinks it's all just beginning... "Judge a man by the way he ends his days."

 

 

 According to Rolandas Kazlas, the director of "Seniors" and one of the actors in the play, "I would like this play to give more to an ordinary pensioner than a small pension does. And even more for a future senior citizen. Although the heroes of the play are Italian, I would like the older Lithuanian audience to say or think silently to themselves when they see the play: "this is about me", "I recognise a lot of things" or "I needed this play right now". 

 

 

 The cast of actors is truly impressive: three friends of the same generation, Vitalija Mockevičiūtė, Evaldas Jaras and Rolandas Kazlas, who after many years are meeting each other again and, remembering youth, are welcoming the approaching old age. No one knows how old V. Mockevičiūtė is, but the combined age of the actors is quite solid: 165 years! A full hundred more than the retirement age. So there should be enough experience to delve deeper into the world of seniors and the joys and sorrows of the characters of old age.
