Fundamentalisti

Fundamentalisti is a Finnish play. It was written by Juha Jokela and produced in 2006.

The play is a dialogue between two people with different attitudes towards religion, Heidi and Markus. Heidi represents the fundamentalist in the play. Markus is a more liberal priest who thinks that the Bible should be interpreted symbolically rather than literally. The contradiction between the literal and symbolic interpretation of the Bible is brought out through exegesis.

The Fundamentalist has been performed in nine Finnish professional theaters between 2006 and 2010. Åbo Svenska Teater has performed it in Swedish under the name Fundamentalisten.
