Summary
[edit]_(4549288864).jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | The Swedish National Theatre (S.N.T) in Helsinki is situated in the heart of the city at the western end of the Esplanade Park. It is one of six professional theatres in Finland to serve the Swedish speaking population and is considered to be the Swedish national stage. The S.N.T. was built in 1866 by the Russian architect Nicolai Benois. The site had already housed a wooden theatre that burned down in the early 1860?s. This wooden structure was home to sporadic performances but once Nicolai Benois? theatre was completed, regular performances began. The theatre still enjoys the beautiful salon in red and gold built by Benois. The intermission space for the audience is original as well. The rest of the building went through a major renovation and modernization in 1936 by the famed Finnish architects Saarinen and Eklund. Thus the theatre building has an interior partly from the 1860?s and an exterior from the 1930?s. In May of 1867 a society was founded with the purpose of running the theatre. At that time an ensemble was employed and there has been a permanent ensemble ever since. The board of the society still runs the theatre carrying the economic responsibility and appointing key positions. [www.svenskateatern.fi] |
