Power struggle between man and woman takes the stage at São Luiz in the play "The Father" by Strindberg

Correio da Manhã15 September 2026 at 10:30

The play "The Father," by playwright August Strindberg, takes the stage at the São Luiz Theater with an approach on the power struggle between a man and a woman. The show explores the tensions and conflicts between the two genders, a central theme in the Swedish author's work.

After the presentation in Lisbon, the show moves to the São João National Theater in Porto. In the northern city, the play will be on stage from October 8 to 18, providing Porto audiences the opportunity to watch this production.

Why this matters

Lisbon audiences can watch the play at São Luiz before the transfer to Porto, where it will be on stage for ten days. Strindberg's work, which examines marital and power conflicts, continues to have theatrical and cultural relevance, attracting audiences to the country's major stages.
