After Miss Julie
A version of Strindberg's "Miss Julie" by Patrick Marber
Milton Keynes Theatre 18th - 23rd July 2016

Set in 1945 in an English country house, on the eve of Labour's landslide victory at the end of the World War II, this compelling and erotic psychological thriller is by Strindberg's 1888 masterpiece.

During a summer ball, the beautiful daughter of the peer who owns the house, wanders into the servants' quarters.

As she flirts with  her father's handsome chauffeur, indifferent to the presence of his fiancee, what beings as game playing ignites into passion with devastating consequences.

Helen George plays Miss Julie. Well known for her role as Trixie Franklin in Call the Midwife, she recently received huge praise for her thrilling performances in Strictly Come Dancing.

Patrick Marber's plays include Dealer's Choice, which won the 1995 Evening Standard Award for Best Comedy and the phenomenal international hit, Closer, which won the Evening Standard Award for Best Comedy, the Critic's Circle and Olivier awards for Best New Play and was made into a BAFTA Award winning film in 2004.
