Introducing the Theatre Academy: Documentary solos

The event requires a ticket that is available free of charge. Tickets will become available on Monday 16 November via this link (lippu.fi ↗), and at the service desk of Maunula Library. A small number of tickets are also set aside to be available at the door on the day of the event, and you can enquire about them at the venue half an hour before the event starts. Students of the Theatre Academy perform 12-minute solo pieces, which they have created independently, at Maunula House on Friday 4 December 2026. In this series of solo works, the artists explore relationships with the army, being a Mediterranean boat refugee, gender, one’s own knees, a personal violin, one’s own father and great-grandfather, and ask what kind of person is good enough. The performances are the culmination of a two-week documentary solo course. On this course, the master’s degree students chose their own subjects and collected or produced documentary material related to them. The artists are students of degree programmes in acting, dramaturgy and playwriting. The course was taught by Professor of Dramaturgy and Playwriting Heini Junkkaala. The performances last approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes, including an intermission. The event requires a ticket that is available free of charge.
