Saara Turusen voimakas näytelmä käsittelee naisen puhtautta ja identiteetittömyyttä, haaveisiin pakenemista ja sinne uppoamista, sitä kuinka fantasian voima voi olla voittamaton, jos siitä ei suostu päästämään irti. Se esittää kysymyksen siitä saako ihminen esineellistää itsensä jos haluaa? Puputyttö kulkee rajuna tajunnanvirtana sekoittaen todellisuuden tasoja värikylläiseksi freskoksi. Saara Turunen’s powerful play speaks about woman's purity and loss of identity. It depicts escaping and drowning into dreams, fantasies that become invincible if one can't let them go. The play asks whether a person can willingly objectify oneself. The Bynny Girl progresses in a ferocious stream-of-consciousness, blending levels of reality into a color-saturated fresco. The pressures women face are given a stinging, concrete form, and childhood and adulthood melt into one another in a genuinely theatrical way. The play offers opportunities for a variety of interpretations and executions, and its open format encourages the director and the actors to bring their own original ideas to the work. The play has been translated into English, German, Hungarian, Slovak, Spanish, Danish, Polish, Italian, Estonian, Czech and Russian. In addition to the Finnish productions, it has been produced at the Barcelona, Sala Beckett, the Sirály Theater in Budapest, Divadlo Letí Theater in Prague, the Teatro El Granero de Centro Cultural del Bosque in Mexico City (inv. to the Festival Cervantino, Guanajuato, Mexico) and as a radio drama at the Estonian Public Broadcasting (ERR).
