Dance of Death

Work:: Dance of Death (S2921)

Author

August Strindberg

Production:: (T01536753860)

Dance of Death is a piercing examination of a stifling and embittered marriage, founded on cruelty and a lust for power. The arrival of a divorced cousin further adds to the tension. The setting is a remote British Army garrison island off the coast of Co Donegal, between 1913 and 1916. The political turbulence and upheaval during this period of Irish history form a fitting backdrop for this extraordinary play and give it contemporary relevance.
