From The Stables Theatre – After Miss Julie

It's election night 1945 and the working class is about to elect a new Labour government and herald a seismic change in British society that will alter the old order for good. Meanwhile in the bowels of a large country house, beautiful privileged Julie, daughter of an aristocrat, is playing a dangerous seductive game with John, his lordship's chauffeur.So begins Patrick Marber's brilliant update and adaptation of August Strindberg's 19th century classic Miss Julie. What follows is a night of brutal psychological cat and mouse, explored through Marber's typically searing dialogue. Themes of class, sex and money are dynamically explored and build over one fateful night to an explosive climax.This is an unmissable opportunity to see a great play reinterpreted for our times by an equally great contemporary playwright with a wonderful trio of Stables actors ready to bring it dramatically to life.
