Diskoteekki

We are in Helsinki, the capital of Finland, which has become a haven for climate refugees. Longing for the joyful bingo games of their homeland, the French working-class community gathers every Saturday at the Bingo Halli in their neighborhood, hoping to win a prize that will help ease their bleak daily lives. However, in Finland, the atmosphere in bingo halls is rather dreary. With *Diskoteekki* (Finnish for “nightclub”), Nicole Genovese—known for her poetic, absurd, and socially conscious comedy theater—leads the Percussions de Strasbourg ensemble in a reflection on enchantment. This musical, with the sincere charm of a vulnerable group of people, pays tribute to the loneliness that brings people together and reveals itself. Come discover how a dreary community hall can be transformed into a nightclub!
