Strindberg meets the present day in Mellika Melouani Melani’s *The Father*. *The Father* is Strindberg’s furious ideological drama from 1887 about a man as the victim of a woman’s cunning and manipulation.

In Mellika Melouani Melani’s production, the man faces a choir of single mothers, led by Kajsa Grytt. What happens when their reality confronts Strindberg’s ideas?
