Summary/Abstract: The author states that this year's Sirenos Festival in Vilnius (24.09-4.10.2015) was among the most remarkably successful, despite the extremely pessimistic tone of most of the plays, which were more or less direct responses to the present political situation in Europe. Burzyńska analyzes what she saw as the festival's three best stagings: Heroes' Squaredirected by Krystian Lupa, Boris Godunov directed by Eimuntas Nekrošius, and Cleansed directed by Oskaras Koršunovas, which joined the motifs of madness and dabbling with evil.
