“Life changes in an instant. You sit down to dinner and life as you know it ends.”
Joan Didion
In Eeva’s family, human worth is measured in achievements. When she first loses her job and then receives the news that her husband Heikki want’s a divorce – in the middle of their 30th wedding anniversary celebrations – the facade begins to crumble. While youngest son Oliver moves away from home and daughter Sara balances on the edge of burnout in the financial world, everyone in this conflict-ridden family is finally forced to face what no one dared to say out loud. It’s an embarrassingly funny party where everything literally falls apart – and you’re invited!
Antti Silvennoinen’s playful direction blurs the line between audience and stage. The forces of nature are ever-present as the actors build and tear worlds before your eyes.
Festerna will premiere in autumn 2025 and will run for a limited period. This is more than theatre – it’s an experience that stays with you for a long time. Secure your place in the audience now.
