Jussi Lampi makes his last summer theater barrier. Unless certain boundary conditions are met.
Cheerful Jussi Lampi, 64, answers the phone in Joensuu. He will play Utra’s new summer theater this summer Hero of the day in the music play. The premiere was already in the week after Midsummer. The training season was busy, and the last version of the script came on the first day of training.
-Let’s say that we are going in a good direction, Lampi laughed before the premiere.
According to the man, there are plenty of twists and turns in the play and the pond plays as many as three different roles. The biggest is the role of entertainer Torsti von Pasanen, and the song is on the skins of different characters.
– The whole repertoire is in use, describes the actor.
Ilya Teppo has composed new songs for the play that Lampi praises unreservedly.
– The songs are not only singing, but deepening the characters’ story.
The crowd is funny and even though the pond Pokka is generally well, so -called fall is always possible. And it can take itself.
– I’m not afraid of it. I’m looking forward to it, Lampi laughs again.
– In the meantime, the audience can go for coffee, he carved.
Last summer theater summer
The pond has been a hard -working summer theater actress, but now it’s the last summer. Lampi originally met Ilya Tepo at Puntti Valtonen’s wedding; The invitation to the summer theater came a couple of months later. The pond agreed, because it is in Joensuu that the circle closes correctly. He started his summer theater career in 1987 at the Hasanniemi Summer Theater in Joensuu Hopperin the play.
– I thought it would be great to decide it here where it all started.
Summer is spent closely in Joensuu in the Linnunlahti summer home, a sauna detached house. In the summer of the summer, the pond is accustomed to her career. During the presentation, the journey to Alavuden-Home is too long in the performance period.
– Twelve hours back and forth.
Pond Berry-The wife has a decent summer vacation. He packs the bouquets and Kampsi and is involved in Joensuu.
– As long as he can, he has stuff for summer. Now, now, it is like he’s, Lampi says.
When the summer theater scene ends in early August, the couple will head to Crete for good food and wonderful scenery.
– Then we’re pretty Potslojo.

The Lampi couple, who married in 2019, has last been on a honeymoon abroad, though only a year after marriage.
In 2021, in Korona’s mentions, the ponds moved to Alavud. The actress, who has lived in Helsinki for a long time, admits that sometimes Kallio will be missed. There is no shortage of friends or lodging in the old home corners.
– We have taken the line with Marjo that when you start to feel like it, then we go to Helsinki and Kallio, we are there for a few days.
Retirement but not
In the fall, Lampi will go to the Seinäjoki Theater Hysteria to play a farce role, but the official retirement days will begin in December. The freelancer’s life is behind and no longer has to think about the next production.
“What doesn’t mean I would retire,” he reveals.
If the invitation goes, movie roles are good. As such, nothing is dug anymore because the career has been more versatile than the young actor once dared to hope.
– With the people I had admired from a young age, and hoped that he could joke when he would even meet that person. Then suddenly it is a co -worker.
In time, Lampi replied in the interviews that his wish would be Batman.
“Now it may not be possible anymore, or it should be old and sturdy Batman,” Lampi says.
Even if the theater roles are retired, the music front is bubbling. Timo Rautiainen and Lampi closer to twenty years Rautiainen The & Lampi duo is about to go to gigs. The thing the drummer Lampi had forgotten to his wife to mention.
– Oh you are leaving? I haven’t heard anything about this at all, Marjo Lampi had said.
Somewhere in the miracle, the pond has also translated the lyrics of Johnny Cash in Finnish over the past year. Her Lauri Kotamäki perform artist music in Finnish under the name Cash Only.
If the time and stops are genuinely retired, Lampi wonders that he could invest properly in writing.
And yes, the Lamp’s Summer Theater is still available, namely with these boundary conditions:
– You don’t have to learn any replies and get hell money about it, Lampi laughs loudly.
