Family Comes Home


by Tellervo Kalleinen and Oliver Kochta-Kalleinen. The Helsinki -edition made in collaboration with actors Max Bremer and Johanna Af Schultén. Originally Commissioned by Helsinki Festival 2013

Family Comes Home takes place in private home(s) of volunteer(s). The evening dives into the stories of our ancestors – as we remember them – blending family stories of the audience and finding connection points in the destinies of the individuals of our family histories. The evenings are hosted by two improvisation actors.

The performance has three acts: “Memory Game”, “Odd Family Party” and “The Play”.

Family Memory Game can be adapted to different countries, always in collaboration with two local professional actors experienced in improvisation.
