A masterpiece of modern drama, The Seagull dramatises the romantic and artistic conflicts between four characters: the ingenue Nina, the fading actress Irina, her son the symbolist playwright Konstantin, and the famous middlebrow story writer Trigorin.

The Father

by August Strindberg and William-Alan Landes

Published 1 December 1964
By far Strindberg's most aggressive work, The Father is a feverish nightmare of the struggle he saw between defiant masculinity and the "treacherous weakness" of woman. Mr. Brustein's adaptation takes account of modern feminist sensibilities without diminishing the play's relentless power and furious conclusion.

Miss Julie

by August Strindberg

Published September 1967
A Welsh translation of Strindberg's famous play which is an exellent example of nineteenth-century Naturalistic Theatre together with a translation of the playwright's original preface.
