Adolf is an artist. He’s also a bit of a fool, and a hopeless romantic as well, besotted with his new wife, Tekla. While staying at a seaside hotel, where he hopes to focus on his work, Adolf meets a fellow guest Gustaf, who urges him to question Tekla’s devotion. What began as a chance encounter (but was it?) leads to the unraveling of Adolf’s life. Geraldine James, Charles Dance, and Nicholas Farrell—all three featured in the haunting 1984 television series, The Jewel in the Crown—star in Howard Brenton’s adaptation of August Strindberg’s Creditors. Tom Littler directs. —Jeanne Malle
