After Miss Julie presented by Focal Point Theatre Company at Piccolo Theatre

Chicago Reader - Highly Recommended

"...It's an ingenious conceit, and Marber's taut plotting amplifies the original play's deadly stakes while downplaying its melodrama and misogyny. Marber even gives the servant's fiancee, Christine, a more satisfying—and unsettling—role in the affair than Strindberg does. In Melissa Albertario's measured staging for Focal Point Theatre Company, a nimble cast deftly navigate each turn of this twisted tale."

"...Marber’s explosive and darkly satiric 70-minute play, which is receiving its Chicago premiere by the brand-new Focal Point Theatre Company, explores the power-shift between classes and the degree one will go in sacrificing one’s dignity to adhere to archaic social constructs. Things start slow, but soon boil over into chaos and disorientation as John begins to confront Miss Julie about her fascination with him."
