Herkät ja Rohkeat theatre buddies
Feeling nervous about going to the theatre? Maybe it’s your first time here?
All emotions are allowed in the theatre, and the Herkät ja Rohkeat [Gentle and Bold] theatre buddies know it particularly well! They have watched many performances with children. The Herkät ja Rohkeat are soft and extremely reliable, which makes them both encouraging and soothing. They want to make sure that every child’s theatre experience is as comfortable as possible. Children can hold them on their laps, pet them, and whisper their own stories into their ears during the performance.
Feel free to ask the ticket vendor for a Herkät ja Rohkeat theatre buddy to take with you to the audience. Remember to return it to the desk in the theatre lobby after the performance.
In addition to the soft theatre buddy, you can borrow colourful hearing protectors from us. They can help if sudden sounds startle you during the performance. We have a few theatre buddies and hearing protectors available to borrow. You can also bring your own soft toy friend to the theatre!
