Liian vanha ja liian nuori (Too Old and Too Young)

A PLATFORM11+ AND OULU CITY THEATRE WORLD PREMIERE 14.3.2013

The winner of a National Playwriters’ Contest organised by Platform11+ and Oulu City Theatre

he play presents a recognizable dialogue between parents and their 14-year-old son in an ordinary situation in many homes today. The young man is about to set off for an evening at his friend’s house playing videogames with his mates, but gets stopped by his parents at the door. The outcome is a humorous, thoughtprovoking clash of generations in our modern culture. The play uses the methods of forum theatre: the ideas, emotions and reactions of the audience will create many new solutions, plot twists and final outcomes for the story. The show will tour the local upper schools during spring 2013.

Written by Heikki Itänen. Directed by Heta Haanperä. Set Design Jussi Hukkanen. Cast Oiva Nuojua, Elina Korhonen, Pentti Korhonen and Annina Rokka
