CULTURAL CALENDAR LITHUANIA 2017 Zeal & Ardor
Zeal & Ardor Devilstone Festival
It all started with an internet discussion about conflicting music genres and resulted in an album which was enthusiastically described by The Rolling Stone as “nothing released this year is as strange, inscrutable or wonderful than Zeal and Ardor's Devil is Fine”.
Zeal and Ardor unites the two fundamentally opposed music genres Black Music such as Gospel or Blues and Black Metal and turns them into a completely new and unprecedented style.
As part of their world tour consisting of more than 30 concerts throughout Europe and the United States, Zeal and Ardor will perform at the Devilstone Festival in Lithuania.

CULTURAL CALENDAR LITHUANIA 2017 CALABRIA
Calabria
A film by Pierre-François Sauter
After the death of a Calabrian emigrant who came in Switzerland to find work, two undertakers, Jovan and José, who are themselves emigrants, travel from north to south of Italy to repatriate the dead body into his home village.
“Calabria” is a metaphysical road movie in a hearse. Jovan, a gypsy who was singer in Belgrade, believes in life after death. While José, a Portuguese passionate about classical music, believes only what he sees. This trip is an opportunity to pay a tribute to the dead person and to enjoy life while death is lurking behind the back.

CULTURAL CALENDAR LITHUANIA 2017 Nachlass – Pièces sans personnes
Nachlass – Pièces sans personnes
What remains after we are dead? How can memories be staged?
Stefan Kaegi accompanied eight people who for different reasons have decided to prepare their farewell. In collaboration with the stage designer Dominic Huber, they built eight spaces. Inside the protagonists tell, in their absence, the story of what remains when they are no longer there. An ambassador documents a foundation that will continue her work in Africa when she is gone. A Muslim in Zurich organises the return of his corpse to his hometown, Istanbul. A German banker near the end of his life reflects over the role he played in National Socialism. And a ninety year-old employee wonders what story the photographs of her life will tell.
“Nachlass” presents eight contemporary positions on what heritage and © Samuel Rubio legacy mean today. How does our legislation affect the configuration of
SIRENOS individual estates? What are the historical insights that seem important enough at the beginning of the 21st century to be preserved for future The International Festival of Contemporary Theatre SIRENOS will generations? What do we want to pass on to the people we love, and what take place in Vilnius rom September 28 - October 13. do we want to leave for the society we live in? The audience enters eight immersive spaces. Voices, objects and images guide the spectators to the RIMINI PROTOKOLL point where the baton is passed from generation to generation and to the borders of our very existence. Rimini Protokoll is the label for the works of the artists Stefan Kaegi (Swiss, b. 1972), Helgard Haug (German, b. 1969), and Daniel Wetzel (German, b. 1969) in various team constellations related to theatre, October 1st - 8th | Arts Printing House, Black hall live art, radio plays and installation.

CULTURAL CALENDAR LITHUANIA 2017 En Manque
En Manque – Vincent Macaigne
Once upon a time there was a society in which the people living in the high altitudes took control from governments and accumulated money, power and culture. The whole of European culture has been privatized and is being held under lock and key. The only alternative left for those who want to preserve something vital, something alive, is auto- destruction. And so to destroy the family, to destroy desire and confront the rage, they will deliver themselves to those living below. When there is no joy only destruction is capable of revivifying life.
Vincent Macaigne situates En Manque in a private foundation that has locked up the entirety of European art in a safe. The author does not criticize or expose the savant metaphor of a society blocked by its certitudes, where a handful organise the misery of others. Instead, he uses the theatre to get out of the box, beyond the certitudes and obsessions and sets out in desperate search for a renewed desire to live. © Mathilda Olmi
