A fresh translation of Strindberg’s classic drama Miss Julie will be performed in Halifax on Saturday, September 28. UK Touring Theatre successfully took the play around the country last spring, and is now back on the road for 17 further performances.

The play, at the Square Chapel, is described as a tale of lust, class conflict and broken boundaries, and is regarded as Strindberg’s masterpiece.

The play is set in Sweden on Midsummer’s Either in 1888, and explores the relationship between aristocratic Miss Julie and her father’s valet, Jean.

What starts as a harmless flirtation soon descends into a ferocious power struggle and battle of the sexes.
