Note: No longer in repertoire!

Sinikka Nopola’s (1953–2021) life and work will be celebrated at a memorial event on the Arena Stage in April. The evening brings together Nopola’s unforgettable texts, songs and poems.

“Sinikka could be writing a novel, a play, a screenplay, a children’s book, poems and song lyrics all at the same time. We wanted to bring this idea to a ‘fairly clever’ evening where friends of Sinikka’s perceptive humour and verbal artistry can come together to celebrate and enjoy her life’s work,” says the author’s sister and creative partner, Tiina Nopola.

Performers: Heidi Herala, Vuokko Hovatta, Marzi Nyman, Päivi Kantola, Paavo Kerosuo, Lotta Kuusisto, Seppo Maijala, Tiina Nopola, Iiro Rantala and Reetta Ristimäki
