Author Lassila, Maiju, 1868-1918
Title Kun lesket lempivät: Nelinäytöksinen huvinäytelmä
Credits Produced by Jari Koivisto and Tapio Riikonen
Summary "Kun lesket lempivät: Nelinäytöksinen huvinäytelmä" by Maiju Lassila is a comedic play written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Simo Kämäräinen, a 58-year-old farmer, and his determination to find a new partner after becoming a widower. The interplay among townspeople, particularly their humorous discussions about marriage and relationships, sets the stage for a lighthearted exploration of love and community dynamics. The opening of the play establishes the main characters and their surroundings through lively dialogue, primarily between Simo Kämäräinen and his friend Antti Ronkainen. They engage in banter about Simo's recent widowhood, the woes of finding a suitable wife, and their humorous attempts to persuade each other to seek companionship. The conversational tone reveals their camaraderie and the societal expectations surrounding marriage, while also introducing other locals, such as the village shoemaker Kutvonen and various widows, who add layers to the comedic scenario. As Simo and Antti contemplate matrimony, the scene is set for a larger exploration of love, loss, and the pursuit of happiness within their rural community.
