Giraffes in the city?! Savannah heat, genuine smiles, and African rhythms in the city! Take a short trip with the curious family of giraffes and rediscover Kaunas district with your eyes filled with playful joy.

If you notice a family of giraffes poetically wandering in the streets of Kaunas, don’t be scared but smile! A Xirriquiteula Teatre performance “Giraffes” is an elegant suggestion of another way of seeing and living in the city. Two giraffes and their youngster stroll through the town accompanied by a musician who playfully recreates a dreamlike, savannah atmosphere. Spectacular, visual, with no set script, these delightful denizens silently advance, communicating and connecting with the public they encounter or take by surprise. This performance suggests another way of seeing the city or any other space through this gentle giraffe family’s ingenious, curious gaze. A wordless show that’s the sheer height of entertainment – for the public of all ages.
