A DREAM PLAY
by August Strindberg
Directed by Georgia Mavragani
From 20 March 2024
Strindberg wrote this deeply poetic work in 1901, bringing to the stage the unorthodox structure of a dream, in which space and time are abrogated and the characters are all different aspects of the dreamer's personality.
In this dream, Agnes, a daughter of the gods, comes to Earth to learn about human nature and the experiences of this unknown species. The many and varied people she meets each share their own world with her, which Agni sometimes enters as a spectator and sometimes as a participant. As she travels with them, she starts to become more and more human, experiencing for herself the difficulties of life, its hopes and disappointments.
Georgia Mavragani, together with her creative team and a dynamic cast, returns to the National Theatre to direct one of the great Swedish dramatist's most important works as a choral narrative, a large-scale piece of handcrafted theatre which, like a young child, poses the big questions - why do people suffer? why is the world made this way? and how should one live?
