100 % Oulu
The performance is a theatrical way of exploring the people of Oulu and Oulu of today. Also, the cast of 100 performers forms a community that would not have emerged anywhere else.
A hundred citizens of Oulu take to the stage in 100 % Oulu, a theatre production that gives a tangible voice to the citizens. The performers are selected through a statistical chain reaction so that they represent the city’s population as comprehensively as possible – as if the whole city were on stage in miniature.
The piece brings together one of the top names in European theatre, Rimini Protokoll and ordinary people from Oulu, who may lack any previous relationship with theatre. One hundred volunteer performers represent the city in ever-changing group portraits on a large, constantly evolving stage. They can be viewed for example by age, address or gender.

It will be a highly communal experience. The piece brings together one of the top names in European theatre and ordinary people from Oulu, who may lack any previous relationship with theatre. Also, the cast of 100 performers forms a community that would not have emerged anywhere else. Both people on stage and in the audience would have been unlikely to meet otherwise.
