A Dream Play - Strindberg, August; Churchill, Caryl

Clean, tight, unmarked; very minimal wear; A young woman comes from another world to see if life is really as difficult as people make it out to be; Adapted from Strindberg's 1901 play, this is Caryl Churchill's pare and resonant new version. Characters merge into each other, locations change in an instant and a locked door becomes an obsessively recurrent image. As Strindberg wrote in his Preface, he wanted 'to imitate the disjointed yet seemingly logical shape of a dream. Everything can happen, everything is possible and probable. Time and place do not exist.'
