A Classic Revisted - Miss Julie at the 2012 Fringe

50% Fruit Theatre proudly presents
MISS JULIE
Original Text by August Strindberg
Adapted & Directed by: Zachary Parsons-Lozinski

Stage Manager: Tess Conrad
Technical Assistant: Erika Grace

Starring:
Kerry Johnson as Miss Julie
Zachary Parsons-Lozinski as Jean
Walterdale Member Janine Hodder (Albertine in Five Times, The Skin of Our Teeth) as Christine

Blood, sex, violence, and a whole lot of punk rock - this is Miss Julie the way that August Strindberg never intended it. The classic tale of sexual dominance versus class dominance gets a severe face lift.

"So you think I can't stand the sight of blood? You think I'm so weak?"
