Dramaturgy

A light yet hopeless play Adventures of a Lost Soldier is about the end of the world, featuring the murder of God, nuclear blackmail, recognizable realities, and a fairy-tale setting. One of the soldiers is sent on a vague mission, during which he encounters characters such as the Motherland, the Rabbit, a gingerbread family, and God. This is a road movie where the atmosphere, language, intonation, overall apocalyptic feeling, and interwoven stories are all exceptionally well crafted.

The play remains a comedy of absurdity, with very funny and fantastic episodes that refer to the frightening reality of today.

The text was written during a summer residency at the Nida Art Colony, Lithuania in 2024 and was later presented in the form of a performance.

MEAT LOVERS is a short performative text for one actor and a piece of meat. The monologue unfolds as an intimate and uncomfortable conversation in which the meat becomes a projection surface for emotional rejection, desire, disgust, power, and vulnerability.
The text grew out of the author’s personal experience of a relationship with another person. It reflects mechanisms of emotional distance, narcissism, and the shifting of responsibility that can emerge in intimate relationships. Through a radical and physical theatrical gesture - cooking and sharing the meat with the audience - the performance transforms private speech into a public act, blurring the boundaries between intimacy, consumption, and care.
