Ladies and Gentlemen! Friends and strangers! Time has come to unveil Tukkateatteri’s first ever English-speaking play.
Not About Time is an original piece by the members of the Tukka Goes Hair -workshop. The play is a short, episodic piece framed by the changing of the seasons and it tells the story of one woman’s journey through grief, guilt and eventually acceptance. However, the play is also a comedy guaranteed to leave the audience in stiches with its array of hilarious side characters.
Tukka Goes Hair ends its first (but not last!) wonderful workshop with the premiere of Not About Time. Tukka Goes Hair is an English-speaking workshop aimed at exchange students and expats in Tampere. Throughout the spring, we have gathered tools from workshops on different aspects of theatre to create something of our own.
Not About Time lähti liikkeelle Tukka Goes Hair -työpajasta
Tukka Goes Hair -työpaja lähti vetäjiensä halusta tehdä teatteria englanniksi ja suunnattiin Tampereella asuville vaihto-oppilaille ja englanninkielisille, teatterista kiinnostuneille asukkaille. Alusta lähtien ajatuksena oli tutustua teatterin tekemisen eri osa-alueisiin ja nähdä kuinka laajaa osaamista teatterin tekeminen vaatii. Kevään aikana olemme tutustuneet niin improvisaatioon, näyttelemiseen, ohjaamiseen kuin tuottamiseenkin. Esityksemme on muodostunut kevään aikana työpajakerroillamme, omista kynistämme ja yhteistyöllä.
