Lithuanian comedy club "K2" sees major growth, secures EU funding

Antanas Sadauskas, the founder of the "K2" comedy club in Vilnius, has announced significant positive developments for his venture. After establishing the club a few years ago, it has rapidly grown, achieving a turnover of over 1 million euros last year. This financial success is complemented by a recent major achievement: "K2 Comedy" secured first place in a European Union competition focused on developing international cultural projects, earning a substantial grant of 400,000 euros.

I've been a bit absent, so I want to update everyone a little. Things are going really well for me – last year "K2 Comedy" surpassed the symbolic 1 million euro turnover, and last month we took first place in a European Union competition for the development of international cultural projects, receiving 400,000 euros in support.

Sadauskas shared these updates on social media, explaining his recent reduced public presence. He expressed gratitude to "Responsum," the Central Project Management Agency, and "German pensioners" for their support. He humorously noted that while he can no longer offer cheaper parts for BMWs, he aims to replace them with laughter, and that his sister's return helps with finding dates.

After 13 years of emigration, I brought my little sister back to Lithuania. She is now the K2 director, manages the club's daily operations, looks for new partners, bought me pants, and helps with the ladies.

Crucially, after 13 years living abroad, Sadauskas has welcomed his younger sister back to Lithuania. She has taken on the role of K2 director, overseeing the club's daily operations, seeking new partners, and managing administrative tasks. Her return allows Sadauskas to dedicate his full attention to creative endeavors, aiming to build a comprehensive infrastructure around his projects. He anticipates the next 12 months will be "incredibly interesting" as he works to bring his creative visions to fruition.

Her return allows me to fully concentrate on creativity. I want to create not only individual projects but also the entire infrastructure around them. I am very much looking forward to sharing the results with you.
