Summary: "Lapveden meteli: Historiallinen näytelmä 5:nä näytöksenä" by Martti Wuori is a historical play written in the early 20th century. The work is set in Lapveden and revolves around the characters of Kustaa Götrikinpoika Fincke, a ruling officer, and the local landowners who are embroiled in conflicts over taxation and authority. The drama likely explores themes of social injustice, rebellion, and the daily struggles of the peasantry during a time of oppression. The opening of the play introduces a peaceful spring day at Multianen's farm, where local villagers are gathering and discussing recent events. The characters engage in light banter about the news brought by a messenger, revealing their hopes for support from the king against local tyrants. As they await the return of the king's envoys, tensions rise when they hear alarming details about the excessive taxation and the cruel tactics employed by the ruling officials. The audience is drawn into the mounting unrest among the villagers, who begin to feel that the king may provide a solution to their grievances, setting the stage for potential conflict and action as the peasants contemplate rising against their oppressors.
