Poets
Estonian poets stand up at TaDaa! : is it a politician who seeks cheap popularity? Is it a concerned citizen who calls out to others? Is it just a crazyman who screams standing on a box? No! It’s an Estonian Poet! Most of the participants have been a part of poetry theatre Cabaret Interruptus, all known for performing in schools and on poetry stages, but during TaDaa! they will turn Estonian poetry into a streetshow. The jugglers and tightwire dancers will be known as Estonian poets-writers Fagira D. Morti, Birk Rohelend, Jan Kaus, Kristjan Haljak, Kaur Riismaa and Jürgen Rooste (who is just weird and insane).

Samuelito transforms the street into a theatre. A remotecontrolled bee pollinates the flower on the windowsill. The infant stumbling over the stage entertains the audience.

Juhis (FIN)
Juhis used to be a circus artist with a clear determination, but now whenever he performs, his confused side, Peke, takes control. The act takes him up and down along the Chinese pole, with his head in the clouds and mind sometimes wandering around. But don’t worry, everything goes still just as planned… or if not, there`s no reason to take it too seriously.
Grete Gross (EST)
“Elina” is a street comedy on aerial hammock and high heels, lead by champagne, dreams and quite a bit of nuttiness. Elina is a woman who has had it all – the look, the money, the men, the luxury…until she realises she never had anything fully for herself. Deep inside her, as in every woman, lives the desire to sometimes just forget the rules and make her greatest fantasies come alive. Now it is time to take life by the scruff of the neck, to become an independent woman, fighting for her dreams. No matter what it takes and how many men it breaks, she will get what she wants.

ANNAKR and the TIGER (EST)
When something tries to be something that it’s not, things get awkward. And complicated. And funny. Sometimes hilarious.
But we are encouraged to dream big…
Where is the middle?
Why should there be a middle?
Dream big or go home?
I dreamed a dream..
But then the lions came.
Or some kind of felines anyway.
