Gonçalo Waddington brings Strindberg's "The Father" to São Luiz

Observador15 September 2026 at 12:19

Actor and director Gonçalo Waddington brings the play "The Father" by Swedish playwright August Strindberg to Teatro São Luiz. The work was written in 1887 and is scheduled to premiere on Wednesday.

The play is classified as a family drama, but Gonçalo Waddington also describes it as a "more repressed and potent power struggle." The actor and director thus highlights the dimension of conflict and tension present in Strindberg's work.

August Strindberg is one of the most important Swedish playwrights, known for his plays that explore family relationships and conflicts between the sexes. His work remains relevant to this day, continuing to be staged in theaters around the world.

Why this matters

The Lisbon audience has access to an adaptation of a Scandinavian theater classic, performed and directed by a well-known figure in Portuguese theater. The premiere at São Luiz offers a relevant cultural opportunity for those who follow the local theater scene and for Strindberg admirers.
