“Love is Strong as Death” composed and scripted by Kari Tikka premieres at the Alexander Theater on October 8, 2020. Other performances are October 9, October 10 and October 11, 2020.

The opera expresses, with its rough and beautiful expression, the hope of the salvation of all mankind and creation. The opera challenges the traditional moralistic concept of good and evil. Music, dance and shaking staging meet the hidden depths of man in a strange but warm way. Scenes and costumes designed by Anna Kontek play a central role as visual elements.
