ISIDOR LUNDSTRÖM
HENKILÖT:
In a modest home lit only by a single candle, a late‑night disturbance throws the household into a swirl of nervous chatter. The retired soldier Patruuna Andersson rests in his armchair while his daughter Amanda and the nervous servant Anto try to keep order. When the young civil servant Teodor von Flabben arrives far past midnight, his unsteady entrance and half‑sleeping excuses set the stage for a comedy of errors.
Teodor’s clumsy attempts to win Amanda’s affection clash with Anto’s frantic efforts to hide the intrusion, while the family patriarch remains oblivious behind a veil of fatigue. Their tangled dialogue—full of mistaken identities, hurried promises, and whispered scheming—creates a lively portrait of a restless night where propriety and desire collide. Listeners will be drawn into the quirky, fast‑paced banter, anticipating how the bewildered characters will navigate the chaos before dawn breaks.
