The performance offers new music to texts by, among others, Harry Martinson, Pablo Neruda, and Solveig von Schoultz, while wild food chef Jyrki Tsutsunen offers vegan delicacies from the Finnish forest. The evening's host, the actor Carl Alm, guides us through the performance to music by Amanda Blomqvist, Natalia Castrillón, Mirva Ormin, and Martin Ormin. It's an experience for all the senses!
The theme is current – the emergency situation our planet is now in. The performance is inspired by Professor Johan Rockström's idea that there are nine threshold points that disturb the Earth's stability. If we exceed some of them, there is no turning back.
The emergency is already familiar to us, but where do we find the light and hope on our way to a fossil-free future?

Klockriketeatern is a Finnish-Swedish theater based in Helsinki. We are a nomadic theater without a fixed stage – the world is our stage. We wander, like Harry Martinson's vagabonds, across borders and into new places, to ask questions of ourselves and others. We collaborate with other theatres, groups and artists in Finland and internationally, in many languages. Our goal is to create meaningful performing arts. Klockrike is a credible and respected actor in the cultural field and from 2022 also a state-funded theatre.
