Beautiful and powerful: Lithuanian women

08 November 2025 19:00

With renewed energy and enthusiasm, the girls from the acting group Graži ir ta galinga (Beautiful and Powerful) present their performance-concert Lietuvos moterys (Women of Lithuania). The power that fills the halls is now in its eighth season.

What do a Renaissance beauty, a writer with a scarf, and an interwar seductress have in common? The three of them, along with a group of friends, have been called for many years simply someone's wives and mothers, or simply witches, and now they rush onto the stage to tell everyone what it means to be a woman in Lithuania. Alongside Ieva, Asta, Marija, Vaiva, and Rugilė, the stage will also feature the wild Žemaitė, Barbora, who cried her eyes out for love, the interwar bandit Teklė, a group of witches, a bunch of old women, our and your grandmothers, and a multitude of other beautiful and powerful women who have earned their place in Lithuanian history and been forgotten. Together, they will tell us what young Lithuanian women are like today and what traditions gave birth to them. Based on real facts and fictional stories, the performance-concert "LIETUVOS MOTERYS" (Lithuanian Women) will take the audience not only to different historical periods, but also to different stages of a woman's life, accompanied by different styles of music. Sincere emotion will be replaced by funny stories, and then by fierce irony. Things that cannot be said will be said, and things that are not necessarily funny will be laughed at. May the blossoming flowers adorn the heads of proud women, men, and everyone in between.

We promise that the frenzy and momentum will warm your hearts, the humor and colorful musical bouquet will clear your minds, and the energy emanating from the stage will allow you to breathe in and feel your power. Bodies will dance, love will blossom.
