Sony Music brings all the familiar Moomin characters with new music and into the stage: a new Moomin album will be released in September, accompanied by a musical theatre live performance titled Pyrstötähteä etsimässä (In Search of the Comet). Written and directed by Henna Tanskanen, the performance brings the story to life through song, acting, and visual storytelling. The work will premiere on September 29th and continue as a touring show around Finland.
Based on the novel Comet in Moominland (Kometjakten, 1946), the performance focuses on themes that are central to Tove Jansson's original stories: friendship, adventure, doing things together, and the courage to be oneself. The new songs expand the tradition of Moomin music with new lyrics and modern production, while the stage will also feature beloved audience classics with ne musical arrangements.
The releases of the new Moomin music and the live performance form a complete experience that invites both children and adults to join the adventures of Moominvalley.
The duration of the performance is approximately 1 hour, with no intermission.
Tickets 27/14 € from Kuusamotalo and the Lippu.fi service.
