The Main Stage presentation will last 45–60 minutes, followed by coffee and a chance to tour the newly renovated Café Elli.
The invitation, signed by theatre director Mikko Kanninen, was sent to newsletter subscribers and retired staff; attendees are asked to register by Monday 24 August so organisers can plan catering.
Scheduled premieres include Florian Zeller’s A Perfect Saturday (premiere 2 September, Frenckell Stage, directed by Marika Vapaavuori); Comden–Green–Freed’s Singing Raindrops (premiere 9 September, Main Stage, directed by Hilkka-Liisa Iivanainen); Petri Kotwica and Tuomas Timonen’s Black Ice (world premiere 14 October, Frenckell Stage, directed by Petri Kotwica); Alexandre Dumas and Antti Mikkola’s The Count of Monte Cristo (premiere 21 October, Main Stage, directed by Antti Mikkola); and Arttu Ratinen, Kaj Chedenius and Federico García Lorca’s Eternal Dream (world premiere 5 November, Foyer Stage).
The launch follows recent local theatre activity, including Tampere Theatre Summer at Laikunlava earlier season events and earlier visiting-production plans for the Frenckell Stage visiting shows at Frenckell. It also precedes Arttu Ratinen’s small-stage project announced for November Ratinen’s 60-seat show announcement.
