The Montauk Library will launch its Summertime Series of four directed play readings with a free staged reading of August Strindberg's 1888 play "Miss Julie" on Sunday afternoon at 3:30. 

The play is the story of Julie, an aristocratic young woman, who has a brief affair with Jean, her father's valet. After the initial thrill, they realize they have little or nothing in common -- heredity, as well as social and psychological factors, have determined their futures.

Directed by Kate Mueth and produced by Josh Gladstone, the production is based on Richard Nelson's adaptation of the original. It stars Stephanie Orta-Vazquez as Julie, Max Samuels as Jean, and Amanda Kristin Nichols as Christine, Jean's fiancee.

The Summertime Series has been organized by Carolyn Balducci, the library's adult programs director.

The Sweet Smell of Nostalgia at Sagaponack General

Stepping into the new Sagaponack General Store, which reopened yesterday after being closed since 2020, is a sweet experience, and not just because there’s a soft-serve ice cream station on the left and what promises to be the biggest penny candy selection on the South Fork on your right, but because it’s like seeing an old friend who, after some struggle, made it big. Really, really big.
