STAGE DESIGN

“Sara Wacklinin Oulu palaa” is a historical play that takes place in the city of Oulu at the beginning of the 19th century.

It is a story of society’s hierarchies and social structures from a feminist standpoint.

The scenography is a modern interpretative twist to the period. It takes over Oulu City Theatre’s big stage with glass ceilings, cage-like frames and enormous staircases - representations of classic power symbols.
