The work Puunhaltija, written and directed by Ilona Willebrandt, is a story about how important it is how we treat nature and its creatures. “Niin metsä vastaa kuin sinne huudetaan,” says an old saying. It’s about the balance of giving and receiving. Do we know how to marvel, sense, watch, and listen? What is the effect of kind, considerate behavior and speech? And of oppressive and belittling?

Based on Tove Janssonin Näkymätön lapsi ja muita kertomuksia, the choreography weaves skilled dance, music, and visual elements into an immersive, enchanting world. The piece tells, through dance, of themes important to Jansson: friendship, tolerance, and the courage to be oneself. Duration 50 min.

12:00 Lumo Company: Indigo, Äksön, Monitoimiaukio, free entry

Lumo Company’s contemporary circus piece Indigo takes the audience into a world of dreams and fantasy. Acrobats dance and balance on a unique mechanical horse, sweeping the audience into Indigo’s wild whirl. The hypnotic work combines the trick-riding background and acrobatic mastery of circus artists Hanna Moisala and Jenni Lehtinen. The power of a freely galloping horse is the heart of Indigo.
