Adults Only (Childish Dramas)

Written by Justas Tertelis

This play is about propaganda. We all can agree that propaganda is a reprehensible lie, which is only used in order to change people opinions, values or to influence person’s behavior. Though international politics or information war threats won ‘t be discussed in this play. This play is intended to draw attention to the extent of this lie culture in our everyday lives.

This play is about how people (the adults) fall into comical and paradoxical world while trying to raise other people (the kids). The play is also about comical (and not so much) situations when the adults are doomed to learn, understand and chose the information in order to form their children point of view.

Graduation

Written by Austė Urbanavičiūtė

Domcė would say „with the gang of ours“, Toma would add “for the last time”, it’s time to drink till you lose your consciousness, to cry and hug everybody around, and finally, while the sun is rising, to spill out everything that was kept in silence. This night is much more than just graduation. This is inevitable transition of five pupils to adults. There is only one condition - they have to survive the ending and beginning just in one night.

Softer than oil

Written by Chase Brown

Joshua Schaad, a twenty year old kid with a seemingly troubled past, is finally a part of

something bigger than himself: a religious “hate-group”. Ike Foster, leader & founder of the cultish society, with charm and promises of salvation, manages to take young Joshua under his wing. Despite Ike’s bigotry and malicious nature, Joshua works tirelessly to make himself indispensable in the eyes of his new mentor, compromising moral decency along the way. In order to garner more public renown for the church, Joshua suggests Ike allow a British documentary filmmaker, Charlie Costello, visit and film an exposé on the church. Ike reluctantly agrees, but later regrets this decision after seeing how he and his followers are portrayed to the rest of the world. Ike then forces Joshua to appear on a popular chat show, The Trudy Butler Show, to justify the church’s actions and exploit this newfound infamy. Once on the show, however, the usually easy-going host, Trudy Butler, presses Joshua to the point where the legitimacy of his own faith is questioned. Joshua’s existential breakdown is televised across the country, throwing his church into hot water, and his sense of belonging out the window.

The play jumps in time, travelling from the past, present, and an ambiguous ‘in-between

place’. Therefore, the description above isn’t necessarily indicative of how the plot

functions.
