In his hotel room, he attempts to make gold by finding the philosopher’s stone, the secret of creation. As his grasp on reality weakens, his first two wives visit him to bring him to his senses. But their interventions spin out of control. For four years in fin-de-siecle Paris, Europe’s most famous playwright vanished. Most people thought he had gone insane. When he reappeared, his new plays changed theatre forever. Howard Brenton's play The Blinding Light tells the astonishing story of August Strindberg’s ‘Inferno’ period. It premiered at Jermyn Street Theatre, London, in 2017, directed by Tom Littler. -- Publisher website. 600 10 $a Strindberg, August, $d 1849-1912 $v Drama. 600 17 $a Strindberg, August, $d 1849-1912. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00030010 655 7 $a Drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423879 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217015958.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=98DE63C2462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
