'The Little Girl Who Loved Matches Too Much': Gaétan Soucy's novel on stage at Kellerteater

A mystery in theatre form, a stage version of Gaétan Soucy's much-acclaimed novel. After the sudden death of her father, the narrator must leave a closed mansion and encounter a world around her that she barely understands. Through the distorted gaze of the central character, the family's dark past slowly comes into view. The story is built as a mystery, both poetic and grotesque: we see the world through the eyes of someone who has never learned to tell normal from abnormal.

With Lauli Koppelmaa (Ugala theatre), Sylvia Köster, Agur Seim and Andres Roosileht. Translator Triinu Tamm; dramaturg and director Kersti Heinloo (Estonian Drama Theatre); movement Sylvia Köster; art Kristjan Suits; sound Raido Linkmann; light Rene Liivamägi (Tartu Uus Teater).

Note: the performance may use loud sound and stage smoke, which are harmless to health. Premiered 21 March 2026 at Kellerteater.

Tuesday 17 November, 19:00, Kellerteater, Uus 37, Tallinn.
