Playful typography and an assortment of typefaces are combined in Mäluraamat (“Memory Book”), a compilation and a behind-the-curtains look into Paide Teater’s 2021/2022 season. Graphic design by Ran-Re Reimann. Words from the theater (translated from the Estonian):

The memory book is an atlas, the pages of which map the paths already taken, those that have been discovered and noted down during the creation of the productions of the past season, but also make crossings into the unknown, undiscovered depths to investigate which dramaturgical structures and techniques could become travel documents that would allow us readers, writers to cross ever-changing borders in the landscapes of remembering and forgetting.

Paide Teater’s 2021/2022 season book brings together the productions “Paide Sümfoonia” (Paide Symphony), “Lahinguväli” (Battlefield), “Teine asi” (The Second Thing), “Udu” (The Fog), “Esimene tants. Viimast korda.” (The First Dance. For the Last Time.) and “Ja kes mind siis lõpuks mäletab?” (And who will remember me in the end?) and their metatextual structures, thematic stratifications and realizations clarified in the processes. The memory book brings together the results of one year’s creative work of a theatre and allows the elements discovered during different productions to react with each other.
