At the end of January, actors Mantas Bartuševičius, Arūnas Valinskas, and Vaida Baranovė hosted a special performance of their comedy 'Uošvis' along with the organizers. As previously announced, all the proceeds from ticket sales, the creators' fees, and partner donations forgoing payments were directed towards a noble cause—supporting Ukraine in its struggle for freedom. This initiative showcases the theatre community's solidarity with those affected by the war in Ukraine.

During a celebratory gathering to mark the successful season of 'Uošvis,' a veteran from the entertainment industry humorously urged the group to consider distributing bonuses for their success. However, after a heartfelt discussion, they collectively decided that the bonuses would be better utilized supporting their brave compatriots fighting for freedom in Ukraine. This decision exemplifies their commitment not just to their craft but also to social responsibility and humanitarian efforts, further underscoring the interconnectedness of art and activism.

The move has been positively received by both the public and fellow performers, illustrating the power of the arts in effecting change and rallying support for causes that resonate with contemporary societal issues. The upcoming donation of 30,000 euros underlines the potential impact less conventional fundraising avenues can have, particularly in times of crisis. Such initiatives encourage audiences to engage with the arts while contributing to meaningful charitable efforts, amplifying the message that creativity can serve as a catalyst for compassion and support in difficult times.
