As a lecture performance, Anupras Jucius will present a short contextual retrospective and self-reflection about some first experiences and observations of being in Zurich. He will present sketches about cultural shock and some thoughts on system effects and their influence on empathy.

Since finishing his Bachelor studies (Stanislavski method) at Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre, he has been part of the ensembles at two State theatres and been working in parallel as a freelance actor and stage light designer/technician in various performances, movies and TV-series productions.
