Patrick Marber Remembers After Miss Julie



After years of success in comedy, writing for programmes like The Day Today and various Alan Partridge projects, Patrick Marber took many by surprise when he revealed in 1995 that his next project was After Miss Julie, an adaptation of an 1888 play, Miss Julie, by Swedish writer August Strinberg. \n\nPatrick’s version saw events transported to capture the Labour Party’s postwar triumph at the 1945 general election. Here, he looks back on the BBC’s production of his piece and recalls the experience of working with a cast that featured Kathy Burke, Phil Daniels and Geraldine Somerville.
