Finland has a uniquely high concentration of exceptional musicians and the opera house (Oopperatalo) which houses the Finnish National Opera and Ballet is a fitting place to represent that heritage. It is a beautifully designed venue, both inside and out, with well organised hospitality and service and of course an amazing auditorium hosting many many high quality concerts. Our latest visit was to Avec Patrick which showcased the talent of the FNOB orchestra and choir.

The theatre house, designed by Finnish architect Timo Penttila, came into use in the autumn of 1967. The Theatre has currently six stages: big stage (947 seats), small stage (347 seats), studio Elsa (240 seats), Theatre Studio Pasila (324 seats), Arena stage (500 seats) and Lilla Teatern (267 seats), which is producing plays mainly in Swedish. Helsinki City Theatre is also active in the fields of audience work and art education. Performance-related workshops are organized for various groups: children, adults and senior citizens. Theatre cooperates with various schools in art education projects. Helsinki City Theatre patrons can use subtitle devices at performances on the main stage. Subtitles are currently available in Russian and Finnish, and sometimes in English too. The subtitling service is free, and they may be read either with the Thea app on the spectator's own smart phone (iPhone or Android), or on an iPod supplied by the theatre. Subtitle devices must be reserved at the same time as tickets, and the head usher will hand them out and explain how they work in the lobby before the performance. For more information please call to ticket sales.

Helsinki City Theatre has a nice location by a bay. We went to see Kinky Boots, Finnish version. The theatre was sold out and the musical was excellent, excellent performers, singers, dancers, lay out, roling. I have never before been in theatre where everybody in the audience after the play, musical was applauding standing for five minutes. We left the theatre feeling great. We loved the musical.
