LOVEIISA: A Romantic Comedy

LOVEIISA X Kasaridisko by DJ Maverick
Myllyn kesälavalla la 11.7.2026 klo 20 alkaen
Strömforsin kesäteatterin LOVEIISAn tullessa päätökseen, sen tarina jatkuu tanssilattialla. Kesäteatterin viimeisen näytöksen jälkeen klo 20 alkaen, DJ Maverick nostaa tunnelman kattoon kasarin parhailla hiteillä. Jos olit mukana näytöksessä, ilta saa täydellisen jatkon, ja vaikka et olisi nähnyt LOVEIISAA lainkaan, olet aivan yhtä lailla tervetullut mukaan.
Luvassa on tanssia, diskohittejä ja kesäillan hyväntuulista tunnelmaa Strömforsin ruukin upeassa miljöössä. Ehkä löydät uuden tanssiparin, ehkä uusia tuttavia tai ehkä vain vietät ikimuistoisen kesäillan loistavan musiikin parissa.
Tule mukaan tanssimaan ja päättämään kesäteatterikesä vauhdikkaissa merkeissä!
Vapaa pääsy!
