TTT Club Announced Two Jazz Gigs in April
by BWW News Desk - April 21, 2022
The English-language jazz conversation divides musicians into “sideman” and “leader,” meaning the band member and the band leader. Often, leadership also means that the person acts as the lead soloist and composes the majority of the songs in the software. The task of the members, in turn, is to play their own stems reliably and sparkle in their own solo shifts.

BWW Review: L'ACCIDENT DE BERTRAND (BERTRANDIN KOHTAUS) by HIT Helsinki

HIT theatre collective brought us L'Accident de Bertrand (fin. Bertrandin kohtaus) by Emilie Leconte at Kaapelitehdas. It had its premiere in Finland, excluding its reading in Reading European Drama Festival, Helsinki 2019. The text itself is eventful and interesting with many layers and possibilities in its execution. It does proceed as if it was a dream.

BWW Review: The Hobbit at Turku is a Solid Fantasy Adventure
by Rosanna Liuski - April 04, 2022
Unlike the Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit is a book targeted for children. Thus the crew had seemingly made a choice to stay true to its source material. Things are kept simple and even the most scary stone-trolls are made less scary with a funny accent. Gandalf comes forth to tell the story as if a narrator and fight choreographs by Oula Kitti are witty and flowing rather than violent-looking.

ARVIO: Marian tunnustus pohtii ja opettaa pyhästä, rakkaudesta ja anteeksiannosta, teatteri Avoimet Ovet
by Rosanna Liuski - March 11, 2022
Marian tunnustus - muistokirjoitus hevoselle on vakuuttava kotimainen uutuusteos. Sen yksi inspiraation lähteistä on Eeva Mesiäisen elämäkerta Maria Kajavan pitkä taival, joka kertoo inkerinsuomalaisesta Mariasta. Hänellä oli poikkeuksellinen palo luterilaisen seurakunnan perustamiseen aikana, jolloin uskonto oli kokonaan kielletty ja rikollista. Esitykseen ohjaaja-käsikirjoittaja Hanna Kirjavainen on myös tuonut omaa pohdintaa pyhästä, ihmisen suhteesta luontoon ja eläimiin oman hevosensa Pojun menettämisensä kautta: '-- olin pitkään kokenut hevosen läsnäolossa jotain sakraalia, mystistä ja perustavanlaatuista olemassaoloa -- Tunsin vahvasti, että se taluttaa minua kielen tuolle puolen, vaikenemisen ja 'sellaisenaan toteutumisen' ulottuvuuteen, jonne ihmismieli ei yllä.' Näin syntyi fiktiivinen teos Mariasta, joka todella pohtii niin teologisia, kielellisiä (tarkemmin metalingvistisiä), kuin ikiaikaisia rakkauden ja anteeksiannon kysymyksiä.

BWW Review: SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD By TAMK Musical Students
by Rosanna Liuski - March 03, 2022
I got invited to the TAMK's musical students' premiere of Song For a New World. It's been directed by a leading musical actor Petrus Kähkönen who now took the job of a director. He had a challenge of arranging a show that was originally performed by four people in a form of a concert now into a musical for 15 performers. He did well. Let's dig into the review:

Kansallisteatterin 150-vuotisjuhlavuodelle Suurelle näyttämölle tuodaan aiheellisesti Red Nose Companyn Aleksis Kivi, jonka kansallisromanttista maailmaa säestää kamariorkesteri Avanti. Ensi-iltansa teos saa 17.2.2022, josta se jatkaa kiertueelle eri puolelle Suomea. Haastattelin teoksen dramaturgia Eva Buchwaldia, joka toimii myös Kansallisteatterin vakituisena dramaturgina, sekä ohjaajaa Linda Wallgrenia sähköpostin välityksellä. Olen itse teoksesta täpinöissäni. Kivellä on minulle erityinen paikka sydämessä ja hänen viimeiseksi lauseekseen huhuttu Minä elän koristi aikoinaan huoneeni seinää.

But if it doesn’t make sense I start discussing with the actor why are you doing like this? What are you thinking, what are you feeling? And then you go through that' - Harjanne

HAIR SALON is Now Playing at Tampere Työväen Teatteri
by BWW News Desk - December 06, 2021
Ansku (Sari Puumalainen) and Raikku (Maria Kuusiluoma) are childhood friends who work as hairdressers in the suburbs. The old Retail space they rented out is falling apart; there is mold in the corners, and the pungent creosote floats in the air. When the toilet bowl stops working, a firm decision is made in the minds of women that this cannot continue. The dream of a decent business creates hope for better, but can they afford it?
