It is an open, international initiative that treats inclusion as both an artistic and social responsibility.<br>\nAfter masterclasses and workshops in autumn 2026, audiences are invited to the closing performance &ldquo;The Lunch That Never Happened&rdquo; (Jan Willem van den Bosch, Netherlands, United Kingdom), which forms the project&rsquo;s central artistic event.<\/p><p>The performance takes place in complete darkness, asking the audience to rely on sound, breath and space instead of sight. It creates a world that unfolds in the mind rather than on stage.<\/p><p>Three parallel stories &ndash; Cher, Eminem and Queen &ndash; fuse together into a sound&#8209;based drama in which each audience member becomes a quiet co&#8209;creator. By removing the dominance of sight, the performance encourages a different kind of attention and empathy.<\/p><p>Organised by Liep&#257;ja Puppet Theatre<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16932,"template":"","event-location":[394],"event-category":[110],"event-accesibilty":[],"event-region":[365],"class_list":["post-16935","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event-region-liepaja-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/16935","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16932"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16935"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event-location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-location?post=16935"},{"taxonomy":"event-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-category?post=16935"},{"taxonomy":"event-accesibilty","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-accesibilty?post=16935"},{"taxonomy":"event-region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/liepaja2027.lv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-region?post=16935"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
