Theater Museum (Teatterimuseo), Helsinki

The Theater Museum, situated at the Cable Factory, presents Finnish theater history. The permanent exhibition, Voima ja lumo (Strength and Enchantment) tells about Finnish theater, using costumes belonging to famous actors and actresses, model stages and even a game where you can try your hand at directing. In this museum you can learn either by looking and listening, or by getting hands-on experience, as there are many things intended to be tried and touched. The collections include, among other things, photographs, recordings, posters, programs, costumes, and puppets. The museum has a small theater, Arkadi, and its stage can be used for small performances. It also puts on changing exhibitions in conjunction with which there may be workshops or other events.
