TAMPERE THEATRE FESTIVAL
Distinguished international and Finnish productions of drama, dance and street theatre take over Tampere during this annual festival, one of the oldest in the Nordic countries. Theatre festivals are among the earliest type of festival, and classical Greek theatre was associated with religious celebrations dedicated to the god Dionysus, who was always having a good time. Though I doubt the proceedings of his day were able to compete with this Finnish stage — featuring the likes of 1970s-inspired Days of Disco (above). And there aren’t many places in the world where you can sit back and enjoy a show while munching on a plump mustamakkara (blood sausage served with lingonberry sauce).
