Inside the production

Story, stage & company

On stage

The documented stage experience

Bastards of Strindberg is a celebrated contemporary theatre anthology produced by SATC (Scandinavian American Theatre Company). This non-musical stage work brings together four plays by distinct writers—Dominique Morisseau, David Bar Katz, Lina Ekdahl, and Andreas Boonstra—set to music by Anette Norgaard and Elyssa Samsel. The production offers new takes on August Strindberg’s themes, reimagined for modern audiences in the heart of New York City.

People behind the production

Originally staged as a world-premier reading in Scandinavia House, New York, in November 2012 as part of SATC’s Contemporary Reading Series for Strindberg’s centennial, Bastards of Strindberg went on to Off-Broadway success at Theatre Row (Lion Theatre) in September 2014. The show has since remained a reference point for contemporary theatre that engages with classic frameworks through fresh voices and interdisciplinary collaboration.
