003 - Part 2 Scene 1

from Dance of Death · host August Strindberg

Dance of Death is a gripping two-part play by Swedish playwright August Strindberg, penned in 1900. It explores the unraveling of a marriage between Edgar, an artillery captain, and Alice, a former actress, as they become increasingly ensnared in their isolated, fortress-like home. The tension mounts as they manipulate and provoke one another, leading to the unexpected arrival of Curt, Alices cousin. This intrusion intensifies their already fraught dynamic, creating a tangled triangle that heightens the drama. The narrative further evolves in Part Two with the introduction of their children, Allan and Judith, complicating the emotional landscape. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett) Cast Edgar Bob Neufeld, Alice Elizabeth Klett, Curt Bruce Pirie, Jenny Availle, Old Woman Bev J. Stevens, Allan mb, Judith Arielle Lipshaw, Lieutenant Victoria, Narrator Sean Daley. Audio edited by Elizabeth Klett.
