Dance Theatre Minimi was founded in 1991. Minimi is a professional dance theatre based in Kuopio, Finland. Minimi performs both in Finland and abroad: on tours and on our local stage, in schools and on the streets. There are on average 150 performances and more than 30,000 spectators annually. We want to sustain and develop touring theatre and create performances in which dance and theatre merge into a complete entity.
