Dramaturge

The play Creditor by August Strindberg is a drama about love, betrayal and revenge. The main characters are Tekla and her husband Adolf, who is an artist in failing health. Adolf has been visited by his newfound friend Gustav, who is sitting and consulting with him about what to do with his wife Tekla, who is constantly playing with him. He fears that she is unfaithful, as she runs around at night. What he does not know is that Gustav was once married to Tekla and has now, like a creditor, come to take her back. This is to be done by making Adolf understand that he must leave her.

The plot takes place during an afternoon in a salon at a seaside resort. The artist Adolf and his wife Tekla, who is a writer, live there. The wife is away and her ex-husband Gustaf shows up to take revenge.
