Julie wobbles into the kitchen, hiding from her own 21st birthday party. Lights bounce off the walls from her sparkly dress – she’s her own glitterball, though the party has long turned sour.
Performed in Dutch with English surtitles, Rebecca Frecknall’s debut production for ITA – the landmark company which frequently visits Britain – is her own version of August Strindberg’s Miss Julie (1888). Chloe Lamford designs a stark modern kitchen, all hard metal surfaces and everything tucked behind brushed-steel doors, save for a fearsome strip of knives and cleavers.
