Strindberg - Other Sides: Seven Plays presents fresh translations
based upon the new national Swedish edition of Strindberg's works,
hewing close to Strindberg's techniques of "scoring" his scripts
for actors and directors. The plays are illuminated in introductory
essays revaluating Strindberg's role in transforming theatre (and
art) with his extraordinary new forms. The Ghost Sonata is a
keystone in the construction of the expressionist theatre; in The
Pelican Strindberg goes "over the top" with his own form of
psychological drama until it soars beyond the realm of realism; The
Dance of Death is a battle of the sexes rendered absurd, as a
series of games played against the void; and Carl XII is an epic
play portraying the last months of the king who brought Sweden's
history as a great power to an end. Three one-acts from the late
1880s foreshadow the striking ambiguity of Strindberg's later
works.
