Miss Julie

About the show

During a Midsummer Eve celebration at a Swedish country estate, Miss Julie’s engagement to Niels ends after she orders him to kiss her boot. She flirts with the valet John, who admits his long-standing love and plans to escape with her. Julie steals money, but John kills her canary when she insists on bringing it. As John leaves to answer the Count’s summons, Julie goes into the garden and follows his suggestion to kill herself.
