Description
Written in just 14 days, Miss Julie is a groundbreaking play that shocked audiences with its frank portrayal of desire and social convention. The story of a young woman's tragic confrontation with her own desires and the expectations of those around her, it was initially met with fierce criticism for its perceived immorality.
First performed in 1889, the play's premiere was banned by the censor, and subsequent productions were met with protests and controversy. Yet, despite its provocative subject matter, Miss Julie has become one of Strindberg's most enduring and popular works, with commentary and notes by David Thomas and Jo Taylor providing valuable context and insight.
