Strife by John Galsworthy at Theatricum Botanicum

Strife
By John Galsworthy
June 21 – October 4

What compromise is possible when human dignity and health are on the line, along with a business’s survival, and the economy it supports? It’s Capital versus Labor versus the Union at the climactic peak of a labor strike, with a resolution hanging in the balance. Nobel Prize-winning writer and activist John Galsworthy remarkably shows every point of view as the corporation and workers consider untenable options. 1890s Pennsylvania, amidst the industrial unrest and labor movements of America’s Gilded Age, sets the stage for Theatricum’s production of Galsworthy’s gripping story of human endurance, sacrifice, and the fragile balance between justice and compromise.

Pay What You Will ticket pricing is available for the performances on Friday, August 15th and Friday, September 9th. PWYW tickets will become available online the week of the performance and at the door on the day of the show. A pre-show discussion with the cast will begin one hour before showtime.
