Selima: Sadullinen komedia viidessä näytöksessä
Produced by Tapio Riikonen
"Selima: Sadullinen komedia viidessä näytöksessä" by Friedrich Schiller is a dramatic comedy likely written in the mid-19th century. The play revolves around the character Selima, the only daughter of the Emperor, who has stubbornly resisted marriage proposals, causing turmoil in her kingdom. The story intertwines themes of love, sacrifice, and societal expectations, highlighting the consequences of her actions on those around her. The beginning of the play introduces us to Purdovar, a prince who has escaped from captivity and his companion Aslak. They discuss the brutal fate of those who seek Selima's hand in marriage, warning that suitors must answer three riddles or face execution. Purdovar becomes determined to challenge this cruel custom and win Selima’s love, exhibiting both courage and folly. The opening sets the stage for a clash between personal desires and the harsh realities imposed by royal obligations, foreshadowing a dramatic exploration of love and identity.
