THE CREDITOR
A Play
By August Strindberg
[Scene: A small watering-place. Time, the present. Stage directions with reference to the actors.
A drawing-room in a watering-place; furnished as above.
Door in the middle, with a view out on the sea; side doors right and left; by the side door on the left the button of an electric bell; on the right of the door in the center a table, with a decanter of water and a glass. On the left of the door in the center a what-not; on the right a fireplace in front; on the right a round table and arm-chair; on the left a sofa, a square table, a settee; on the table a small pedestal with a draped figure—papers, books, arm-chairs. Only the items of furniture which are introduced into the action are referred to in the above plan. The rest of the scenery remains unaffected. It is summer, and the day-time.]
Scene I.
[Adolf sits on the settee on the left of the square table; his stick is propped up near him.]
