Storyhouse have announced a new live streamed run of their acclaimed production of Strindberg’s Miss Julie from 9-17 April.

The production, adapted by Amy Ng and directed by Dadiow Lin, will return to the venue next month before touring to other theatres later in the year.

It’s Chinese New Year in 1940s Hong Kong and celebrations are in full swing. 

Julie, the daughter of the island’s British Governor, crashes the servant’s party downstairs. What starts as a game descends into a fight for survival as sex, power, money and race collide on a hot night in the Pearl River Delta. 

Artistic Director of Storyhouse, Alex Clifton, said: “We are delighted to announce that we are continuing to create work even during lockdown. New Earth are a brilliant team to partner with, and we’re thrilled to restage this extraordinary show with them, which we first commissioned from Amy two years ago. Its political currency has only grown; its urgency only intensified. This is a vital story, tackling complex social politics – relations between Britain, China and Hong Kong - in a simple, powerful human story.”  

Miss Julie is designed by Adam Wiltshire, with sound by Max Perryment, lighting by Chris Davey, choreography by Yukiko Masui, and stars Sophie Robinson as Julie, Jennifer Leong as Christine and Leo Wan as John.
