Cutting Ball begins the 2012 celebration of Strindberg's centennial with two plays that encapsulate Strindberg's two major contributions to drama: realism and expressionism. In Miss Julie, Strindberg examines class tensions through a sexual encounter between an unmarried young lady and her father's valet. In A Dream Play, Indra's daughter comes down to earth to better understand the plight of man. Through this surreal journey, she meets an officer, a lawyer, and a poet. Strindberg structured the play using a dream logic that was later adopted by Expressionist playwrights.
There will be a traditional Swedish dinner served between the two readings, as well as a discussion of these two vastly different visions of theater. Part of Cutting Ball Theater's Hidden Classics Reading Series.
