Jenny Hill
Wild and tenderNote: No longer in repertoire!
Jenni Mäki divorces her husband Jussi and leaves their seaside home in Espoo for a studio flat in central Helsinki. Her children are already grown up, and now it is time for Jenni to discover who she is beneath everyone else’s expectations. Jenni Mäki becomes Jenny Hill – a woman beginning to find her own voice and her own way of living.
Jenny Hill is a wild yet tender comedy-drama about a middle-aged woman coming into her own. Brimming with pure joy, Jenny Hill empowers, inspires and entertains, offering a wealth of insight and relatable moments.
Minna Rytisalo’s richly nuanced, magical novel (2023) is transformed into a dazzling play by dramaturg Henna Piirto. Directed by Liisa Mustonen, the production combines elements of circus and dance, showcases its virtuoso actors in magnificent solos and strikes with the driving rhythm of flamenco heels.
