The next play scheduled to premiere on the main stage of the Oulu City Theatre is Huojuva talo, a play depicting a hellish marriage.
Samuli Reunanen, who is also directing the play during its run in Oulu, has transformed Maria Jotuni´s original novel into a modern adaptation.
The stage design, the creation of Jyrki Seppä, features idyllic, almost magical scenery which serves as a contrast to the unpredictability and harshness of the lives of the play´s protagonists.
"A meadow, aspens and the midnight sun. Midsummer´s Eve is a time of magic--when people feel joyful, young and beautiful, and when they fall in love," explains Jyrki Seppä.
The play opens February 4th.
