In the Forest's Care - Legion Theatre's Forest Theatre Collective: As the Forest Answers

Legion Theatre's forest theatre collective presents a one-hour physical theatre performance "As the Forest Answers" outdoors in the forest and park area of Kannelmäki. The director and actors guide the audience from the Kanneltalo foyer to the forest stage starting at 6 p.m. The performance explores the forest's biodiversity through physical theatre, humor, and poetry - without electronic effects, using only human bodies and voices.

The performance is part of the exhibition and event series "In the Forest's Care" (Fri 14 - Sat 29 Aug), which examines the forest's future through art, science, and participation. The series includes workshops, lectures, community art, and discussions. The exhibition is displayed in the Kanneltalo gallery, and all events are free.
