Plays

The August Strindberg Repertory Company will stage a new production of Miss Julie at the Gene Frankel Theatre In New York, October 24 – November 8. Strindberg’s controversial play is transported from the Swedish countryside at Midsummer to an antebellum Louisiana plantation.

The New York City-based August Strindberg Repertory Theater will present To Damascus, Part One from April 18 through May 11. The play has been described as “Strindberg’s most complex play” and “his greatest play,” with its mix of myths, symbols and ideas and a profound spiritual analysis in a new dramatic form.

A new play by Jonas Hassen Khemiri, I Call My Brothers, translated by Rachel Willson-Broyles, will run at the New Ohio Theatre In New York from January 22 through February 23. On the day after a car bombing, Amor walks through a city paralyzed by fear, with his backpack and cell phone, trying to blend in.
