The Railroad Playhouse in Newburgh, New York presents a staged reading of “Mr. Bengt’s Wife” by August Strindberg in a new translation by Laurence Carr and Malin Tybahl.
Written in 1882 as a rebuttal to Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House the play utilizes realism, expressionism, melodrama, and dreamscape to tell the story of the rebellious Margit. Her quest to become an independent New Woman, catches her in a maze that bounces her from nunnery to castle, with a husband and two lovers vying for her attention.
