Dance of Death

Dance of Death

August Strindberg

The Dance of Death is a two-part play by Swedish dramatist August Strindberg, written in 1900. It explores the deteriorating marriage between Edgar, an artillery captain, and Alice, a former actress, as they engage in psychological manipulation within their isolated home. The arrival of Alice's cousin, Curt, intensifies their conflict and introduces a complex triangular dynamic, further complicated by the presence of their children in the second part. This work is notable for its exploration of themes such as marriage, isolation, and power struggles.
