Cast: Toma Vaškevičiūtė, Giedrius Savickas
A man. Wife. Marriage. Crisis.
Antonija (Toma Vaškevičiūtė ) and her husband (Giedrius Savickas) find themselves in such a rather traditional situation. The situation is traditional, but the solution is truly original. Even shocking! We bet you wouldn't have thought of that before. And here's the mind of our comedy heroes in a strange way. "We will save our relationship only if we change our cultural attitudes fundamentally," says the man. "But it doesn't happen like that. You know what happens? A war of nerves, panic attacks, insomnia, a bunch of pills, consultations with psychologists and, in the end, nonsense," Antonija initially evaluated the idea with skepticism. But in the end, HE convinced HER. In order to save the marriage, both agree to become an "open couple". Build intimate relationships with others without hiding. And to tell your family about your adventures without any shame or remorse.
Maybe, after all, even though one of you has tried this method of saving a relationship? If so, we'd love to hear how you got on.
Our heroes did not succeed as they imagined... "This dance must be performed by a couple and both sides must be ready for sudden turns. You can't predict who will emerge as the winner from such a relationship," says the director of the play, Antanas Obcarskas.
The comedy "Open Couple" maintains intrigue until the very last seconds of the performance. And the spectacular finale becomes an even bigger surprise for the viewer.
The comedy "Open Couple" is based on the famous Italian play "Coppia aperta, quasi spalancata" (by Dario Fo, Franca Rame and Jacopo Fo). As soon as it opened in Italy, the play, due to its bold and uncensored content, received a huge stir.
The creators of the Lithuanian play "Atvira pora" warn that the issues discussed and the situations acted out in it may shock a more sensitive viewer, and may also be difficult for people under the age of 16 to understand.
