Drama 1m/2f
In this acclaimed adaptation of August Strindberg’s Miss Julie, French has sharpened the psychodramas of the original scenes. Class, desire, jealousy, domination, and deceit come into play in this disturbing drama about the affair between the daughter of a count and the count’s manservant. As with his adaptation of Chekhov’s The Seagull, French pays homage to one of the modern theatre’s most enduring dramatists.
“Direct, accessible, and strangely contemporary, David French’s adaptation of Miss Julie is a blast of dramatic fresh air.”
