Patrick Marber, author of Closer, also wrote the provocative After Miss Julie. This updated retelling of Swedish dramatist August Strindberg’s classic 1888 play Miss Julie is an exploration of the tensions that develop between the seductive, sadistic daughter of an estate owner, her father’s valet (who secretly pines for Julie) and John’s fiancé, the mansion’s cook. In this version of Strindberg’s drama of sex and social class, the setting’s been transposed from 19th-century Sweden to post-World War II English countryside. See it in Chicago at Strawdog Theatre Company.
