Restageerattu

Restageerattu is a Finnish adjective used to describe a work, performance, or event that has been restaged or reconstructed for a new presentation. The term is formed from the English loanword restage (to stage again) plus the Finnish past participle suffix -erattu, producing a passive form that denotes something already restaged.

Common contexts for restageerattu include theatre, ballet, and opera, where a production is mounted again with changes such as a new director, revised choreography, different cast, or updated scenography. The term is also applied in film, television, and museum or gallery settings to indicate a revised or reinterpreted version of a previously presented piece, installation, or exhibition. In these contexts restageerattu emphasizes the act of restaging rather than creating a wholly new work.

Usage notes: restageerattu can refer to both minor revisions and substantial re-imaginings, depending on the scope of changes. It is frequently used in press material, program notes, and curatorial descriptions to signal that a prior version has been revived under altered conditions. Related concepts include remount, revival, and uudelleenversiointi, each capturing slightly different aspects of repeating or reinterpreting a work.

Example: Esitys restageerattiin vuonna 2023, jolloin lavastus ja valot uusittiin. Taidenäyttely restageerattiin kokonaisuudessaan uudelle tilalle.
