Anxiously awaiting the return of his new wife, Adolph finds solace in the words of a stranger. But comfort soon turns to destruction as old wounds are opened, insecurities are laid bare and former debts are settled. Regarded as Strindberg's most mature work, Creditors is a darkly comic tale of obsession, honour and revenge. David Greig's version premiered at the Donmar Warehouse, London, in September 2008.

"Isn't that lovely! Women can be stolen as you steal children or chickens? And you regard me as his chattel or personal property. I am very much obliged to you!"
The 'creditors' of the title are Tekla's former & current husbands as described in this passage:
Adolph: "To love like a man is to give; to love like a woman is to take. -- And I have given, given, given!"
Tekla: "Pooh! What have you given?"
Adolph: "Everything!"
Tekla: "That's a lot! And if it be true, then I must have taken it. Are you beginning to send in bills for your gifts now? ..."
And indeed he is, egged on by Gustav
While none of the characters are completely 'true to life', they act out a situation & emotions that are. A thought-provoking play that I need to ponder further... ( )
