Summary "Juhannus-iltana: Laulunsekainen kansannäytelmä yhdessä näytöksessä" by Walakorpi is a folk play written in the early 20th century. This theatrical work captures the essence of a Midsummer celebration in a Finnish village, portraying the joy and festivities of youth as they gather to celebrate the summer solstice. Through a mix of dialogue and song, the play encapsulates themes of love, community, and the beauty of nature. The story unfolds on Midsummer Eve, focusing on a group of young villagers gathered near a lake to revel in the joyous atmosphere. They prepare for festivities, including music, singing, and traditional dances. Key characters like Taneli, Kustaa, and Kerttu interact to express their feelings and desires, leading to two couples becoming engaged during the celebration. Under the night sky, they share their hopes and dreams, while the enchanting backdrop of the Finnish summer sets the scene for a touching and vibrant exploration of youth, love, and connection to nature, culminating in a mood of optimism and celebration.
