New Earth Theatre & Storyhouse announce UK tour dates & casting for Amy Ng’s MISS JULIE

Miss Julie

New Earth Theatre and Storyhouse have today announced new UK tour dates for their production of August Strindberg’s Miss Julie, adapted by Amy Ng.

Directed by Dadiow Lin, Sophie Robinson will return to the role of Miss Julie, with Jennifer Leong starring as Christine and Leo Wan as John.

The production will open at York Theatre Royal on 22-26 June, before visiting Southwark Playhouse (29 June-3 July) and the Belgrade Theatre Coventry (8-10 July).

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: “After a gruelling year, most especially for freelance theatre makers, it's wonderful to stride back to live theatre with such an important and powerful story, delivered by an incredible freelance creative and acting team. This is a show that throws us right back to work telling vital stories with urgent compassion on a human scale - we're very proud to stage it with our friends at New Earth.”
