Mies Julie

From 10 Jul 2012 to 03 Aug 2012

11 July – 4 August 2012. This play, entitled Mies Julie, is based on the play Miss Julie by August Strindberg, directed by the South African director Yael Farber, starring Thoko Ntshinga, Bongile Mantsai and Hilda Cronje.

This new version of the play is set in the remote, bleak beauty of the Eastern Cape Karoo. The visceral struggles of contemporary South Africa are laid bare in this domestic setting, where John and Mies Julie battle one night over power, sexuality, memory, mothers and land.
