Historian jännät naiset – tarinoita, joita et tiennyt olevan (“Extraordinary women of history – stories you didn’t know existed”) is a performance piece presented by Spindrift, an all female award winning Nordic theatre company. It’s based on Maria Pettersson’s book of the same title.

The photo, which was taken by the designer and photographer Julian Grönberg, resembles the pose on the book cover. The colors of the lettering are more modern, as is the lettering in modified Cavatine. With its decorative letters, it creates a feminine, empowering image for the entire visual identity including the poster and the flyer. Big Caslon is used for the subtitle. ABC Whyte, a clear and modern sans typeface, was chosen to set the information and texts inside the flyer.

After a show at the Etelä-Karjala Museum in Lappeenranta on February 11, the performance will be shown at Avoimet Ovet Theatre, Helsinki (February 24 and March 22) and at Lapin maakuntamuseo, Rovaniemi (March 25 and 26).
