The Red Room in the North Lodge is usually open Monday to Saturday between 11am and 6pm (depending on staff/student availability), from 22 September to 21 October 2012. Drop by and find out more about Strindberg’s life and work, or relax in an armchair with one of his novels or plays. We’re also running events most days during the month: talks, performances, workshops and book launches. These are listed below.
