Julia

The Strindberg classic Miss Julie is audaciously revised in this hypnotic production from internationally praised Brazilian theatremaker Christiane Jatahy. In Julia, the story unfolds before a live audience while a roaming camera operator captures close-ups and action that otherwise might go unexamined. Perspectives are blurred, creating unusual and mesmerizing encounters between actors, technicians and the audience. As a moment of lust spirals out of control, a hot spotlight illuminates the dangerous power dynamics of race, gender, and class. Audiences will find themselves riveted, but also wondering, “Should I be watching all of this?” (Performance contains mature content, nudity and intense sexual situations)
