THE SWEET WINTER DAYS WERE ONE OF THE HARE’S FUR

Kaija Pakarinen, Tapani Rinnee and Riku Saastamoinen’s new performance based on Sirkka Turka’s poems at Tekstin Talo in October 2024.
In a performance that combines stage music, ambient jazz and theater, a person searches for a crazy toccata, remembers his school days in the top of a linden tree, bombards his head with sleeping pills, follows Hamlet’s upbringing, chews the lit ends of matches, suffers from stomach cramps and visual disturbances, sinks into oblivion and beyond.
The night expands into a mountain over the house, the hare’s eye is the size of the sky.
