Rakkaus

Rakkaus (Love) is a captivating musical puppet show aimed at babies, toddlers and all ages. The show is based on children’s thoughts and experiences of different manifestations of love. In the show, the longing, warmth and joy of love are especially experienced.

Alongside the artistic working group, the Väriläiskä expert group consisting of 6–10-year-olds from the PiiPoo Cultural Centre is responsible for the content of the show. The show is part of a joint project with the PiiPoo Cultural Centre, where PiiPoo implemented a functional exhibition on the same topic.

Baby- and toddler theater AEIOU is a touring theater that has been operating in Slovenia since 2010 and in Finland since 2013. The performances and workshops run simultaneously in both countries. AEIOU has been awarded the Slovenian Puppet Theatre Award in 2013 and 2015. The AEIOU working group consists of professionals from theatre, visual arts and art education.

AEIOU creates colourful and participatory theatre – art with a playful spirit. Its performances offer young children positive and developmentally enriching experiences.
