A Dream Play

In Caryl Churchill’s darkly comic and resonant version of August Strindberg’s surreal A Dream Play, a heavenly creature named Agnes comes to earth to experience what it’s like to be human and report back to “God, the gods, whatever”. This fantastical dive into the subconscious takes us through a series of tantalizing dreams with vivid characters — a sort of “David Lynch does Joan of Arc in Wonderland.”
