& (theatre)

[citation needed] The theatre mounts its own productions and hosts 2–4 international guest performances annually.

Artistic director Erik Söderblom described it as a "positive provocation" that highlights "community, cooperation, and togetherness.

"[5] According to the theatre, the sign "&" symbolises combining things and ideas as well as bringing performers, audiences and cultures together.

And also the sign "&" is pronounced as "et", which can also be interpreted as the initials of "Espoon teatteri", meaning the Espoo theatre.
