England, July 1945. The Labour Party’s landslide election triumph. Victory in the class struggle. Celebrations in every street. Miss Julie descends into the servants’ kitchen of her father’s country mansion in search of the chauffeur John. Over one long midsummer’s night, Miss Julie’s world is turned head over heels.
