Comedy "Dad After 20 Years" with Ainārs Ančevskis
Panna Theatre audiences may still remember the comedy staged many years ago
a humorous study of male nature, "Dad".
At the time, the then-young actor Ainārs Ančevskis told the story in a witty and
warm way about male nature, philosophy, relationships, and feelings during the
stage of life when he is preparing to become a father and then becomes one.
Twenty years have passed.
Over these years, young parents have tried various parenting methods.
From Montessori and Waldorf education to
programs approved by the Ministry of Education, and few parents have been at peace with a preteen or teenager's antics and
actions.
"Bring him home crying from the hospital and realize that the mess on your hands does not smell
like beer, nor like a pond, and even less like garlic toast.
And that this crying opera singer will not be your fishing
buddy for at least another 16 years...
But just as he finishes crapping his pants, he suddenly turns fourteen and puts a sign on his
bedroom door:
"STOP! No old people allowed in this room!"
Actor Ainārs Ančevskis has grown up together with the character from the play and can now experience
the full spectrum of raising a son in his twenties in the new play-comedy
"Dad After 20 Years".
Raising children is without a doubt the hardest and most self-sacrificing thing a man
can do in his life.
But it is one of those important parts of life that must be experienced personally and
that he would not trade for anything in the world.
The new production will be on stage at many cultural venues across Latvia from 30 January.
The production is created by:
director Juris Rijnieks,
actor Ainārs Ančevskis and
the creative team of the PANNAS TEĀTRIS production company.
Information:
The performance is in two parts with an intermission. Running time: ~2h.
