The Virgin Bride by AUGUST STRINDBERG
Translated from the Swedish by MICHAEL MEYER with Sarah Badel , Martin Jarvis Cyril Luckham , Colin Douglas Frances Jeater , Pauline Letts
This production marks the play's first performance in English.
A wedding could end the rivalry between two bitterly opposed families - but one of the conditions of the marriage is that the bride must wear a bridal crown - to prove that she is a virgin. If she cannot, then will the two families be driven even deeper into their hatred; or will they, by some miracle, find peace; and reconciliation?
