TAXI DRIVERS by Mihkel Ulman / Jussi Niilekselä.
The bilingual play, written by an Estonian and a Finn, speaks of two taxi drivers in Tallinn at night: Pertti Lahtinen is looking for the beautiful grey eyes, a woman he met years ago and cannot forget. He happens to sit into the taxi of a local gym teacher Toomas Haav who works as a taxi driver at night. This encounter puts to the test the beliefs and conceptions of the both men.

An ordinary man on his ordinary day can be a sweet picture. He chuckles aside when stumbling on the cobbles and smiles victoriously when sprinting after the trolley bus.
Ordinary life on stage is a sad and depressing spectacle - a row of unimportant thoughts and embarrassing moments and a lot of fun.

We all know the silly expression that the sun is shining after the rain. But it's true, isn't it.
