Miss Julie
Yale Repertory Theater
Written by August Strindberg
Directed by Liz Diamond
Sets by Sara Ryung Clement
Lighting by Blythe Pittman

The period was shifted forward to 1910 in this production of Strindberg's classic. The clothes and palette were derived from Edwardian fashion catalogs, Swedish documentary photographs of the period, and Strindberg's own stormy paintings of dark Swedish landscapes.

"Miss Julie descends, dressed in jodhpurs and a burgundy blouse by Erin Chainani, whose costumes define the class system that figures so importantly in the play." -Hartford Courant

"Erin Chainani's costumes and Blyth Pittman's lighting add to the mad, desperate and dreamy world hidden just below the surface." -Variety
