Kari Hotakainen wrote the monologue Palvelija for Helsinki City Theatre. The play inspects the nature of being a servant — whether it’s just a profession or a characteristic deep inside a person. Multi-talented Martti Suosalo plays the role of the servant, as well as all the other parts while also directing the play.
