\u201cOne of the books by the poet and literary critic Valdemaras KUKULAS, in which he reviews and reflects on Lithuanian poetry and literature, is called \u201cThe End of the Era of the Magnanimous Words\u201d. When you look into the poetry of Valdemaras KUKULAS himself, his attitude in his work, the poet himself seems to be a guardian, a singer of that era of magnanimous words. The guardian, cherisher and creator of those words, like a descendant of some extinct, noble civilisation, a hero of the times when the giants still lived, who came to this time, decorated, sang, lamented and mourned it, us and the future us, this land and this world, this earth and this heaven, and then he went back to the Magnanimity that he missed so much, that he searched for so devotedly in this life, in this creation, in this increasingly spiritless time.<\/p>\n
The performance \u201cAll You Don’t Have\u201d is first of all, of course, dedicated to the fans of the poet Valdemaras KUKULAS, and at the same time – to all the lovers of Lithuanian poetry, because, after all, this poet, who remained faithful to his poetry to the very end, is one of the most interesting authors, who has given all of himself to his work… Reading his poems, you can feel the painful, sorrowful voice of a lonely poet and a human being, with all human colours. In the poet’s own words:<\/p>\n
\u201cYour loneliness and your wholeness:<\/p>\n
Having lost everything, you are full of everything.\u201d<\/p>\n
The poet\u2019s poems are, in fact, the main character and text of the play. was trying to listen to them, to empathise with them: what kind of states, moods one can feel and discover in them. Finally, it was interesting to try to use stage tools to give the poems colours and shadows that you might not realise just by reading the written words.<\/p>\n
I am delighted to have the opportunity to touch the work of this extraordinary poet. My sincere thanks to Deimant\u0117, wife of Valdemar KUKULAS, for her help and trust. I am grateful to Vilnius Puppet Theatre L\u0116L\u0116 and its staff for the opportunity to work there again after a long break. In 2009, I created my first poetry performance \u201cIron and Silver\u201d in this theatre, based on the poems of poet Vladas \u0160IMKUS. By the way, the play is still alive, it is still being performed, and it still attracts a beautiful and large audience. An interesting coincidence \u2013 Vladas \u0160IMKUS and Valdemaras KUKULAS were good friends and even neighbours. So I hope that their friendship and neighbourhood will continue in the repertoire of this theatre.\u201d<\/p>\n
