Tänä iltana (Tonight) is a romantic dream, at once playful and profound. It’s a piece about longing for six dancers and a symphony orchestra. This co‑production of Pori Dance Company and Pori Sinfonietta shamelessly blends autobiographical fragments from the performers with romantic clichés in a joyful collision of different artistic styles.
Tänä iltana invites adults to be children again. To pull the most dazzling outfits from their parents’ closets, throw a party, and whisper secrets. To meet a prince and win an Oscar.
Tonight everyone falls in love with everyone. Let’s dream, kiss, and live through every love story from films and musicals all at once, accompanied by a symphony orchestra.
Tonight we dance with full hearts, for it might be the last time.
Tonight, anything is possible.
