SIMTGADNIEKS, KURŠ IZKĀPA PA LOGU UN PAZUDA is an explosive two-part comedy at Valmieras teātris Lielā zāle in Valmiera from 21 to 24 January 2027. Directed by Mārtiņš Eihe, the production is based on Jonas Jonasson’s novel, with dramaturgy by Laila Burāne. On his 100th birthday, Allan Karlsson escapes from a care home and picks up a stranger’s bag containing fifty million kronor at a bus stop. Alongside Allan’s extraordinary life story, the action brings together a love story, a thriller with explosions, more or less living gangsters and a very much alive elephant. The cast includes Aigars Apinis, Anna Nele Āboliņa, Rūdis Bīviņš, Artis Jančevskis, Māra Mennika, Elizabete Milta, Kristaps Kristers Ozols, Ieva Puķe, Inese Ramute and Klinta Reinholde. Address: Lāčplēša iela 4, Valmiera.
