Event Introduction

Explore the autumn programme at Teatteri Avoimet Ovet, which examines human life as part of the circle of nature: growth, withering, remembering and renewal. Various life stories combine to form layers, with emotions and memories intertwining to become parts of the same web of life.

One of our performances on the Night of the Arts is Soteorpo, which will premiere on 8 September, with performances running 7 September–21 November 2026. Soteorpo, based on the novel by Minna Lindgren, is directed by Hanna Kirjavainen. It is a darkly comic portrayal of a marriage overtaken by dementia and a social satire of the absurdity of care systems and bureaucracy.

The foyer, the bar and the box office will open at 5:30 pm. The programme will start at about 6 pm and end at 8 pm. The doors to the theatre will be open throughout the event. Special Night of the Arts ticket offers will also be available during the event.

Licenced event 18+ (drinks can be taken into the theatre hall); free admission
