Fans of well-honed satire will enjoy The Red Room, August Strindberg’s no-holds-barred send-up of the pretensions of Swedish high society in the late nineteenth century. Earnest government worker Arvid Falk leaves his old life behind and tries to make a splash as a writer, but as he begins to spend more time with various elite and exclusive cliques, he becomes all the more disillusioned.
