(Laura, 10 years old)

“Love is a feeling, for example, feeling warm next to another person.”

(Justina, 11 years old)

“When we were little, we were surrounded by a very strange world. Everyone around us was so big and seemed to want something from us. As we grew a bit older, we started going to school.

There, we experienced all kinds of things: friendship, love, betrayal, joy, and jealousy.

Later, we dreamed about what we would become when we grew up.

When we finally grew up, we remembered the mischief, adventures, and stories of our childhood — stories that could easily become a funny and interesting book.

But we are not writers, so we decided it would be better to perform it all on stage.

And that is how the performance When I Was Little was born.”

(Eimantas, Vesta, Vaidotas — actors of Keistuoliai Theatre)
