Kuka tappoi bambin?
Can evil be forgotten?Note: No longer in repertoire!
Villa City is an idyllic residential area, a community of affluent people. It is a small town where everyone knows one another. Or at least the façades they present.
Villa City’s harmony is shattered in an instant when four boys from affluent families commit a shocking act of violence at a house party. In its distress, the community wants to forget the tragedy as quickly as possible. No matter how horrific the act, preserving the community’s harmony matters more.
But Gusten is haunted by his memories. He feels forever bound to the people of the small town. How can life go on after committing such a terrible act? How does the tragedy bind the people of Villa City together – and is it really possible to move past something so horrific?
Monika Fagerholm’s award-winning novel Kuka tappoi bambin? is a hypnotic tapestry, at once brutal and lyrically beautiful. The stage adaptation is by Pipsa Lonka, one of Finland’s leading playwrights.
