Summary "Kun piiat ovat lakossa: Ivallinen ilveily 3:na näytöksenä" by Martti Wuori is a play written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds in Helsinki and revolves around the social implications of a domestic workers' strike, reflecting the dynamics between different social classes and gender roles. The central characters include Tuure Holm, a government official, and his wife, Hertta, who finds herself embroiled in the complexities arising from the strike. The opening of the play introduces us to the Holm household, depicting a mundane morning disrupted by the lack of domestic help due to the ongoing strike. Tuure struggles to manage daily chores and is frustrated by Hertta's commitments to the strike committee, which leaves him with little assistance at home. As the conversation unravels, themes of gender roles, social responsibility, and class conflict emerge, particularly through the quarrels between Tuure and Hertta regarding household duties and the strike's legitimacy. The arrival of their friend Juuso Karpén and the unexpected visit from Helmi, a relative with her own troubles, further complicates the situation, setting the stage for a comedic yet poignant exploration of the characters’ lives amidst the social upheaval.
