A joint work by Lithuanian and Ukrainian sound artists and dancers – the performance NEMIGA, created in rocket-bombarded Lviv, then moved to Paris to escape the dangers of war, and finally to Lithuania, which provided assistance.

In 2023, the play was awarded the Golden Cross in the Social Resonance Play category.

Insomnia is the opposite of sleep.
It is a state in which we are constantly alert…
because rockets and bombs are falling above our heads, and you cannot close your eyes… but, on the other hand, you must always be ready.
It is a sign of resistance, preventing us from falling asleep in the face of war and the indifference, boredom, and routine that eventually set in.
Memories cannot be erased…
Insomnia is the companion of people fleeing war… it is also the companion of people who take in refugees. In
the face of war, we no longer sleep… we are in a constant state of wakefulness…
anxiety, anger, and hope suppress sleep…

ENG
The joint work of Lithuanian and Ukrainian sound creators and dancers – the performance INSOMNIA, created in Lviv under rocket fire, after fleeing from the dangers of war to Paris and in Lithuania providing aid.

In 2023, the performance was awarded the highest Lithuanian theater award, the Golden Stage Cross, in the category of Social Resonance Performance.

Insomnia is the opposite of sleep.
It is a state in which we are constantly alert…
because rockets and bombs are falling overhead, and you can't fall asleep… but, on the other hand, you must always be ready.
This is a sign of resistance that does not allow us to sleep in the face of war and in the eventually emerging feeling of indifference, boredom, routine.
Memory cannot be erased…
Insomnia is also the companion of people fleeing war… it's also the comrade of people accepting refugees.
In the face of war, we are no longer asleep… we are in a constant state of alertness…
anxiety, anger, and hope choke sleep…
