The Unto Mononen musical drama tells the story of the Somero-born composer's brief life and the women in 1960s tango-Finland. The performance features Mononen's best-known songs: Satumaa, Tähdet meren yllä, Lapin tango, Onnenmaa and Sateen tango. In the 1950s-60s, Mononen was likely Finland's only full-time professional composer of entertainment music, and he died at age 37 from a gunshot wound whose intent remained unclear.

Starring Teijo Lindström, Kalle Jussila, Raisa Laine and Anne Tanskanen. The Quattro orchestra provides accompaniment. The performance runs approximately 2 hours including intermission.
