Stacy Ross* and Phil Wong in
Free For All
A new Miss Julie for a New World
By Megan Cohen
Developed with and
Directed By Ariel Craft
Atop snowy Nob Hill in “Soon” San Francisco, an indulgent soiree for the city's elite ushers in Earth's final frost. As the powers-that-be swill champagne and self-congratulate, have-nots Julie and John tussle for scraps of opportunity and, together, light a stalk of dynamite that may shape a new world order. Bay Area favorites Stacy Ross and Phil Wong spar in Megan Cohen’s Free For All: a bombastic and whimsical take on Strindberg’s Miss Julie, in a world premiere production helmed by Artistic Director Ariel Craft.
