Review and Photos: DISNEY'S LITTLE MERMAID PREMIERED AT HELSINKI AND LOOKS MAGICAL
I step into the auditorium. The awaiting audience is as if underwater already because of the lighting that resembles water. As the show starts, we get the logo of 'The Little Mermaid' projected onto otherwise transparent screen. The music plays the classic tunes, for example Part of Your world. It l...

BWW Review: FREAKY FRIDAY Musical Hits Samppalinna's Summer Theater, a Scandinavian Premiere!
Mother and daughter swapping bodies. To me it reminds of the movie filmed in 2003, starred by Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, which was my only reference to the title. Fortunately, from the show's program I was able to read more of its history and was surprised: it's based on a book published in...

Review and Photos: FOMO by Ryhmisnuoret, the Youth of The Group Theatre

Review and Photos: VILJA ANDAS at The Swedish Theatre Of Helsinki

Review: THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG Goes Finely Right at Turku City Theatre
Things fall of, stage men and women hustle on the stage that's not even ready yet. The play had a good intro with the giggly, proud 'director' Teemu Aromaa. He also made a cameo role as the detective in the play they performed to us....
Review and Photos: HAMLET reflects and breathes without an effort at the Turku City Theatre
Westerberg knows how to fill space and time just at the right time so that nothing leaves hanging. In big scenes (the golfing-scene) as in small details (Hamlet and their friends are hearing something and Hamlet turns around in a full circle, his friends just in a half one)....
Review and Photos: The Loud and Distinctive CHERRY ORCHARD at the Helsinki City Theatre
The Cherry Orchard at the Helsinki City theatre is distinctive and loud in various ways. The madame is so perky, coming to the surroundings of her traumas, yet she doesn't want to deal with the things that haunt her. Only when the future is glaring at the horizon she runs inside, becoming like a sto...

Review: HARRIET at the Group Theatre
The beginning is beautifully harmonious: there is white, black and light yellow in tender different shades. White in clothes and the walls, black in boots and in the decorations of the piano. The candles beam yellow light in which everything basks....
Review and analysis: CHEKHOV'S THREE SISTERS at the Finnish National Theatre
Projections.
Massive set designs. Intensive acting. Symbolism. Paavo Westerberg's Three Sisters at the Finnish National theatre is extremely ambitious, a little crazy and might be too much for people with sensory processing sensitivity (SPS)....

Review: A DOLL'S HOUSE, PART 2 at the Helsinki City Theatre
A Doll's house, part 2 (Nukkekoti osa 2) at the Helsinki City Theatre is minimalistic statement, almost a rantlike play, emphasizing the chemistries of the characters, with usage of prop - and sound-details that phase the play and bring more drama on stage....

Review: BABYLON from the Red Nose Company
