He’s the oldest actor of the company. He doesn’t read e-mails. They can always call if it’s really that important. And of course, he knows that the grand reopening of the theatre is coming soon. But he hasn’t heard anything about it for a while. He wonders why the artistic director wants to see him? Will they need him on opening night after all? He was asked to come tonight, so he’s here.
Uku Uusberg’s brand new play „Opening” was created for the inauguration of Tallinn City Theatre’s renovated building, with the leading role written especially for Egon Nuter who celebrated his 70th birthday in September 2025. The play, simultaneously funny and a bit sad, will take the audience on a journey through the backstage world, where the ultimate winner is love for theatre. Spoken theatre.
