20 Years Later, Still Here!

Lotta Paavilainen and Stina Kopra have performed on Europe's biggest cabaret, variety and circus stages - and been told they are too short, too fat, or simply in the wrong place. They have been told that the person at the bottom of a balancing act should be a man. Yet they are still here, still strong, and still the world's only female duo in rola-bola acrobatics - a discipline demanding total trust, extreme precision, and training that few would endure.

20 Years Later, Still Here! is their autobiographical show about life in showbiz: a mix of acrobatics, physical theatre and storytelling, delivered with raw humour and unvarnished honesty. The performance is in English with elements of Finnish and Swedish, and runs 1 hour and 5 minutes.

Direction: Heidi Niemi, Troels Hagen Findsen. Costumes: Enna Paavilainen. Lighting design: Vilma Vantola. Sound design: Satu Kankkonen, Palle Nothlev.

A guest performance by Lotta & Stina.
