Tartu 2024 |Through the City: Revealing local stories with a little theatrical magic
In case you hadn't heard, 2024 is a big deal in Tartu. This year, Estonia's "City of Good Thoughts" is one of three European Capitals of Culture. But in challenging times like these, what does "arts of survival," the artistic concept underpinning this celebration of all things South Estonia really mean? In the sixth feature of this series, Michael Cole headed to Tartu's Annelinn district with director Jaanika Tammaru and actor Jordi Ripley to find out how a touch of theatrical magic can help reveal important local stories that too often go untold.
