About

Espoo Theatre is the city’s international theatre, known for its bold, contemporary repertoire and its role as a major cultural force in Tapiola. As Finland’s only fully international theatre, it presents a wide range of productions from modern drama and physical theatre to multidisciplinary works and collaborations with European partners. Its stages, including Revontuli and Louhisali, host premieres, visiting companies and festivals such as &Fest, which brings cutting‑edge performances from across Europe. The theatre is also deeply rooted in the local community, running projects that connect residents of diverse backgrounds through shared artistic experiences. A new purpose‑built theatre building is planned beside the Espoo Cultural Centre, promising modern facilities and expanded possibilities for future productions. With its innovative programming and strong international outlook, Espoo Theatre stands as a dynamic meeting place for artists and audiences, enriching the cultural landscape of Espoo year‑round.
