"Suicide" by the Vilnius Small Theater is a macabre and today extremely relevant Russian 20th century play. the comedy of the first half of avant-garde artist Nikolai Erdman. In it, the playwright highlighted the absurdity of Soviet everyday life, about which one of the characters in "Suicide" says: "Nowadays, citizen Podsekalnikov, what you can think about while you are alive, you can only say when you are dead."

Directed by Gabriele Tuminaitė, "Suicide" is not about the Soviet reality, but about today's reality, about modern society attacked by populism and propaganda. The comedy tells how Semion Podsekalnikov (actor Daumantas Ciunis), an unemployed lazy man who lives in a communal apartment with his wife and mother-in-law, who does not understand who he is and what he is doing in this life, after arguing with his wife over liver sausage, decides to commit suicide. His wife, mother-in-law and neighbor try to dissuade him, but his suicide turns out to be beneficial to many. One persuades him to kill for society, another - for her, a third - for art, a fourth - for religion. A cunning neighbor is already collecting money for the funeral, but Podsekalnikov suddenly realizes that he does not want to die at all. He ponders life and death. The play is full of satire, farce and at times existentialist reflection on the meaning of life.
