Miss Julie (Swedish: Fröken Julie) is a play by August Strindberg which deals with class, love/lust and the interaction between the two. Set on midsummer night 1894 in Sweden an aristocrat, the eponym, dances at the servant's party and is drawn to a senior servant, a footman, named Jean who is particularly well-travelled, well-mannered and well-read. The action takes place in the manor's kitchen where his fiancée, another servant, Christine, is sleeping. The plot is primarily concerned with power between the two and their falling in love.
