The creation combines literature, theatre, dance and performing arts in a way that only circus can do. The rock-solid, over 10 person work group will carry out something really unique out of one of the cornerstones of Finnish literature.
Otava-project is a Finnish circus interpretation and a independent circus creation of a Finnish national novel Seven Brothers, written by Aleksis Kivi.
