The creator, director, and choreographer of the production The World Tree, Birutė Banevičiūtė, has been nominated for the 2025 Golden Stage Cross award in the category of Best Performance for Children and Youth.
The World Tree, directed by the choreographer Birutė Banevičiūtė, is a sensory-friendly performance for babies. It gives them the freedom to explore movements, body language and objects on stage together with the actors. Colour and shape-changing costumes along with details of the set encourage babies to move and experience the joy of discovery. And for adults, it’s a unique opportunity to see their little ones in a completely different, artistic environment that awakens children’s imagination and stimulates creativity. The performance is wordless, so movements here are a universal language.
The dramaturgy in The World Tree is based on joint actions of the actors and little spectators. The production is inspired by the concept of the world tree found in the mythology of many nations. In this archetype, the roots represent the past and the underworld, the trunk symbolises the present and earthly existence, and the branches signify the future and the heavens. In Lithuanian folklore, snakes dwell at the bottom of the tree, people and bees live near the trunk, and birds inhabit the branches. On stage, the actors creatively transform abstract objects of various shapes and textures into mythological attributes of the world tree. The children are given enough space to interpret the suggested ideas on their own.
Friendly performance – suitable for children with sensory issues
Without dialogue – suitable for speakers of any language

About the festival
Naujasis Senojo teatro 113-asis sezonas: šokantis, performatyvus, dramatiškas
Vilniaus senasis teatras pristato ateinančiojo 113-ojo sezono pirmąjį pusmetį. Žiūrovai bilietus į rudenį ir žiemą vyksiančius spektaklius gali įsigyti jau dabar, su ženkliomis nuolaidomis. Keisis spektaklių rodymo principai, lauks malonios staigmenos ir pačioje salėje. Žiūrovus kviečiame nebijoti šokti, nevengti dramų bei improvizacijos. Tai suteikia spalvų. Senasis teatras būtent toks: spalvingas, daugiažanris, daugiakalbis, daugiakultūris. Ir žinoma, šokantis, performatyvus, dramatiškas. Kitoks.
Senajame teatre įvyks trys premjeros: armėnų režisieriaus Iljos Moščickio spektaklis „Limbo“ (rugsėjo 4, 5 d.), Agnijos Šeiko šokio spektaklis „Vienat“ (lapkričio 13, 14 d.) ir ukrainiečių režisieriaus Maksymo Holenkos „Žalieji koridoriai“ (gruodžio 11, 12 d.).
Senasis teatras ragina plėsti ne tik geografiją, bet keisti ir vidinę topografiją, paženklintą tolerancija, pakantumu ir atvirumu.
