teatrietendusi

Teatrietendus is a live stage performance produced for theatre audiences. In Lithuanian usage, the term describes a scripted or devised work presented in a theatre venue, with actors performing on a constructed set before an audience. A teatrietendus typically involves a text (a play, a script, or a devised score), a director shaping interpretation, actors, and a team of designers and technicians responsible for scenery, lighting, sound, costumes, and props. The performance unfolds over acts and scenes and is guided by a dramatic arc, pacing, and stage business.

The production process usually includes development and script work, casting, rehearsals, previews, the premiere, and a run that may travel to other cities or be staged as part of a festival or season. Teatrietendus can take many forms, from classical tragedies and comedies to modern drama, social theatre, musical theatre, and experimental or immersive works. They may be text-based or created collectively by a company through creative methods such as devising.

In cultural life, teatrietendusi serve entertainment, education, and public discourse. They preserve and reinterpret language and tradition, support artists, and reflect social issues. The landscape includes national, regional, and independent theatres, touring companies, and festival platforms that present a wide range of theatre performances.
