Summary "Olviretki Schleusingenissä; Leo ja Liina; Alma" by Aleksis Kivi is a theatrical work composed of four acts, likely written in the early 20th century. The play is set during the summer of 1866 in Schleusingen, Germany, and features a cast of diverse characters, including soldiers, a tavern keeper, and various townspeople. The story centers on themes of camaraderie, love, and the absurdities of military life. The opening of the play introduces a lively scene with soldiers on guard duty, interacting with Maura, the tavern keeper, and her servant Mariana. The play sets a humorous tone as the soldiers, primarily Timoteus, Titus, and their comrades, discuss their desires for ale while trying to stay awake during their watch. Timoteus attempts to charm Mariana, leading to comedic exchanges about love and infatuation amidst the backdrop of their military duties. The atmosphere is further filled with banter as the characters navigate their relationships and responsibilities, establishing a blend of romantic entanglements and military absurdity right from the start.
