Version Of Jouko/Juha Turkka Play
Synopsis:
Cherished Disappointments in Love is a brilliantly funny, wildly savage and passionately original theatrical roller-coaster ride. A woman of a certain age is in love with Finland's youngest philosopher, Pekka Himanen. He is also loved by an army sergeant major who means to make a man of him. From the country who gave us saunas, Nokia and Mika Hakkinen, Cherished Disappointments in Love is a comic fantasia on love, philosophy and theatre. Shot through with an eroticism that engenders chaos, the time-honoured and eternal differences between male and female are played out upon the stage with wild, highly comic intensity.

from novel by Bram Stoker
Synopsis:
A bloodcurdlingly brilliant new version of Bram Stoker's timeless novel. Written in 1897, Bram Stoker's novel of sexual repression and Gothic terror is legendary. Count Dracula is one of the most powerful creations of horror ever conceived, yet his lonely and deadly pursuit of immortality seems to touch a human nerve that transcends time and culture. This modern adaptation by award-winning Bryony Lavery promises to scare audiences whilst enthralling them with spectacle, sound and breathtaking magic.
