Baltijas Drāmas forums 2026: Šauļu valsts drāmas teātra viesizrāde “Ovāls” is a documentary drama in Riga, presented at Dailes teātris Lielā zāle on 5 November 2026. Directed by Valters Sīlis and written by Rimantas Kmita, the production features actors from Šiauliai State Drama Theatre. Inspired by conversations with rugby players, press materials and historical events, the play explores passion, perseverance, compromise and the sacrifices made in pursuit of a goal. “Ovāls” is not a report or documentary account, but a drama in which reality shines through, including what is often left unsaid.
