Miss Julie

By August Strindberg

Mon 13 May 7.30pm

Miss Julie

Description

In a new translation for the 21st century.
Directed by Denis Noonan

 

Midsummer's Eve, Sweden, 1888.

 

The Count's daughter and his valet cross social and sexual boundaries; and must face the consequences. What starts as a harmless flirtation, soon descends into a ferocious power struggle and battle of the sexes, from which neither can escape.

 

 

 

Banned in the UK for 50 years, Miss Julie shocked critics across Europe with it’s frank portrayal of inter-class relationships in 19th century society. Now regarded as Strindberg’s masterpiece, the play has received worldwide critical acclaim.
