Kalevala: The Musical is a dark epic fantasy set to a lush score of pop, jazz, and a flair of Finnish folk music. Inspired by the national poem of Finland, the story follows two children who find an ancient artifact in the woods, thereby unleashing a magic portal into the forgotten world of Kalevala. Four Nature Spirits guide the children on an adventure through a set of runes to help return the lost Spirit of Man, Väinämöinen, back to his roots on a quest to save the world from imminent darkness. Ultimately, the kids become entangled in the story, learning how their creativity can hold power to change the world.
