Dances of Death

USD $ 18,49

A gripping new version of Strindberg's masterly, darkly hilarious depiction of the struggles and strains of marriage. Meet Edgar and Alice. Married for almost thirty years, theirs is a relationship of mutual explosive loathing. Strindberg's tale paints a compelling and bitterly funny portrait of a magnificently doomed couple, whose ongoing battle threatens not only their future, but that of their friends and children as well. Howard Brenton's Dances of Death includes both Part One and the rarely performed Part Two of this masterpiece of European theatre, condensed into a single two-act drama. The play premiered at the Gate Theatre, London, in May 2013.

August Strindberg

August Strindberg

Autor original

(Estocolmo, 1849-1912). Escritor y dramaturgo sueco cuyas obras han sido de gran influencia para el teatro moderno. Instaurador del Naturalismo en Suecia, se le considera pionero de la reforma expresionista e investigador de lo que algunas décadas después se conocería como Surrealismo, rasgo que se aprecia especialmente en sus últimas obras.

Fue un gran renovador, precursor del teatro de la crueldad y del absurdo. Sufrió frecuentes crisis personales; odiaba y amaba a la vez la familia burguesa, cuya estructura y desintegración desveló con extraordinaria precisión. 

Buscó otras formas de expresión en la pintura y la fotografía.
