RAMPPIKUUME YOUTH THEATRE FESTIVAL

Ramppikuume Youth Theatre Festival has been organized annually since 1997 in the town of Kankaanpää. The festival is for young from 13 to 20 years of age interested in theatre. During the festival young people can meet other friends of theatre, participate to workshops, watch performances and perform themselves too.

Workshops

During the festival there are several theatre workshops for young lasting 12 hours from Friday until Saturday noon. The themes of workshops vary every year. All the trainers of the workshops are professionals of theatre. The aim of the workshops is to widen the different aspects of doing theatre.

Theatre groups willing to perform at the festival

Finnish theatre groups willing to perform at the festival have to apply by sending a video or dvd of their performance in advance. A jury will select the performances for the festival. These performances will receive a feedback from a professional jury and the best performance will win a Ramppikuume statue and a scholarship.

International guests

The aim of the festival is also to share experiences of doing theatre among young people from different countries. Each year the festival has invited an international theatre group to participate in the festival. The international guests are participating in a workshop in English together with Finnish young and they have also a possibility to give a performance during the festival.

International theatre groups interested to participate in the festival are kindly asked to contact the cultural producer Fanny Vilmilä. The contact information of her is below.
